Solution

The correct option is C Thrifty
Antonyms are words that have contrasting, or opposite, meanings.
Choice D is correct. Extravagant means 'lacking restraint in spending money' the opposite is 'thrifty' meaning 'showing restraint in spending money'. For example: While the elder brother lives extravagantly the younger is thrifty. Choice A means 'customary' Choice B means 'done often' Choice C means 'common' Choice A, B and C are wrong.
