Hey there! So, "centas" is a word that comes from Latin and it means "hundred." You know, like in a dollar, a cent is one hundredth of a dollar? So, "centas" is just another way of saying "hundred." For example, if you have centas of something, it means that you have a hundred of that something. It's like saying you have a century but in a more specific way.

So, imagine if you have a centas of marbles. That means you have a hundred marbles! Or if you have a centas of friends, that means you have a hundred friends, which is a whole lot of friends, right? So, "centas" is just a fancy way of expressing the number one hundred.
