Memory trick · Prashant Sir
Cent यानी सौ: per cent सौ में से, और centipede के सौ पैर माने जाते हैं। इसलिए century यानी सौ वर्ष, या cricket में सौ रन।
CENT means a hundred: per cent is out of a hundred, and a centipede is said to have a hundred legs. So a century is a hundred years, or a hundred runs in cricket.
