Not much, really. The slaves didn't make the major good. And the plantations didn't even add up to 5% of the total profit in Britain's economy.

Answer:

One-tenth

Explanation:

The abolitionist movement in Britain in the eighteenth century contributed to the Parliament's decision to put an end to slave trade. In addition, the country did not depend financially on slavery any more and had an important industrial development, which also encouraged abolition.
