How do the details about Johnson's early life in paragraphs 2-3 help us understand her later success at NASA and beyond? Katherine Johnson was born in 1918 in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia. As a very young girl, she loved to count things. She counted everything, from the number of steps she took to get to the road to the number of forks and plates she washed when doing the dishes.

Johnson was born with a love for mathematics. At a young age, she was very eager to go to school. Even when she was in her 90s, Johnson could vividly recall watching her older siblings go to school, wishing so much that she could go with them. When Johnson finally did start school, she so excelled that by age 10, she was in high school. By age 15, she’d started college!

Group of answer choices

Her struggles in school show how much she developed in her early life before working for NASA.

By describing her love of counting, the text shows that Johnson was always passionate about math.
