my bad century to a decade
(d) quarter - because just like a century is made up of ten decades, a dollar is made up of four quarters. It's all about the math!
To determine the correct answer, let's break down the analogy and understand the relationship between "century" and "decade."
A "century" refers to a time period of 100 years, while a "decade" refers to a time period of 10 years. Therefore, the relationship between a century and a decade is that a century is composed of 10 decades.
Now, let's analyze the options given: penny, nickel, dime, and quarter.
Out of all these options, the one that follows a similar pattern to the relationship between a century and a decade is the dime.
Why? Because just as a century is a larger unit composed of multiple decades, a dollar is a larger unit composed of multiple dimes.
So, the correct answer is (c) dime.
