What does 'b/c' mean?

  1. Before Christ

  2. Because

  3. Beyond control

  4. Base camp

The correct answer is: Because

The abbreviation 'b/c' stands for 'because'. The other options are not correct because 'A' usually stands for "Before" and not "before Christ". If you see it being used with other words or abbreviations, then it may mean something else. 'C' is an abbreviation that can stand for "control", but not "beyond control". 'D' is an abbreviation commonly used for "base" or "decarbonated" but not "base camp" specifically.
