Prestige → widespread respect, admiration, or influence that a person or organisation commands, often due to achievements or status.
Influence → the capacity to affect others → closest meaning.
Quality → standard or excellence (related but not exact).
Name → reputation or fame (partly related, but prestige is more about respect and influence).
Wealth → money or assets (not necessarily linked to prestige).
So, Prestige = Influence.
Influence → the capacity to affect others → closest meaning.
Quality → standard or excellence (related but not exact).
Name → reputation or fame (partly related, but prestige is more about respect and influence).
Wealth → money or assets (not necessarily linked to prestige).
So, Prestige = Influence.

Influence is quite different from all other words.
Having wealth doesn't mean having prestige.
And quality can be good or bad.
So the exact meanings could be name, fame, reputation.

Yeah the answer is apt because 'prestige' is respect or reputation (name) derived from achievements, power, associations etc.

In the definition as an adjective, it is having or showing success, rank, or wealth. The answer should be wealth.

Prestige is name, fame, effect, influence, dignity so I think name and influence both are correct.
