What is the antonym (opposite) of the word ‘Ample’?

Explanation

‘Ample’ describes something existing in a generous, more than sufficient quantity, so its opposite is ‘scant,’ meaning barely enough or insufficient, as in ‘The ample supplies at the start of winter had become scant by spring.’ The remaining options are all synonyms of ‘ample,’ making ‘scant’ the correct antonym.
