Why this is the answer
E Pluribus Unum is a Latin phrase meaning out of many, one. It expresses the idea that many states, and many people from different backgrounds, come together to form one nation. The motto appears on the Great Seal of the United States and on U.S. coins. You can answer out of many, one or we all become one.
