What does 'frivolous' mean?

  1. Of significant importance

  2. Time-sensitive

  3. Of little importance, not worthy of serious attention

  4. Highly confidential

The correct answer is: Of little importance, not worthy of serious attention

'Frivolous' means not serious or not having any real purpose. A is incorrect because it means something is of significant importance, but frivolous means the opposite. B is incorrect because time-sensitive means something needs to be done quickly, but frivolous has nothing to do with time. D is incorrect because highly confidential means something is kept secret, but frivolous means something is not serious or important. Therefore, C is the best answer as it accurately describes the meaning of 'frivolous'.
