Choose the best antonym for thrifty.

Adeceit

Bextravagant

Cturbulent

Dbaffled

Answer:

B. extravagant

Read Explanation:

  • Thrifty means careful with money or economical.

  • The antonym (opposite in meaning) would be someone who spends money freely or wastefully, which is exactly what extravagant means.

Why the other options are incorrect:

  • A) deceit – means dishonesty or trickery; unrelated to spending habits.

  • C) turbulent – means chaotic or unstable; not the opposite of "thrifty."

  • D) baffled – means confused; again, not related in meaning.
