Which sentence in this excerpt from Elizabeth Cady Stanton's speech "Solitude of Self" conveys that it is important for women to

be literate?
Fourthly, it is only the incidental relations of life, such as mother, wife, sister, daughter, that may involve some special duties and training. In the usual discussion in regard to woman's sphere, such as men as Herbert Spencer, Frederic Harrison, and Grant Allen uniformly subordinate her rights and duties as an individual, as a citizen, as a woman, to the necessities of these incidental relations, some of which a large class of woman may never assume. In discussing the sphere of man we do not decide his rights as an individual, as a citizen, as a man by his duties as a father, a husband, a brother, or a son, relations some of which he may never fill. Moreover he would be better fitted for these very relations and whatever special work he might choose to do to earn his bread by the complete development of all his faculties as an individual.
Just so with woman. The education that will fit her to discharge the duties in the largest sphere of human usefulness will best fit her for whatever special work she may be compelled to do.
The isolation of every human soul and the necessity of self-dependence must give each individual the right, to choose his own surroundings.

The answer is: The education that will allow her to serve in the most extensive sphere of human benefit will also prepare her for any particular task she may be obliged to undertake.

The relevant answer is: The education enabling her to fulfill responsibilities in the broadest domain of human benefit will equally prepare her for any specific role she may be required to undertake. In this excerpt, Elizabeth Cady Stanton expresses dissatisfaction with the notion that women's education is defined by their roles as mothers, daughters, wives, or sisters. This perspective persists even for women who do not embody these roles (e.g., those without children or spouses). In contrast, men's education is approached by recognizing them as individuals. She posits that whatever profession women choose, having an education equips them to execute their tasks far more effectively than if they were uneducated.
