Factories became more expensive to operate, and workers were paid less.

Explanation

Interchangeable parts are identical components that can be assembled quickly without custom-fitting each one. This made mass production of cars more efficient and lowered their cost, allowing more people to buy them. As car ownership spread, people could travel farther and more easily, so society became more mobile.
