Claimed to be made in tens (7)
I believe the answer is:
decimal
'made in tens' is the definition.
The answer and definition are different parts of speech. However, past participle verbs and adjectives can sometimes mean the same thing.
'claimed to be' is the wordplay.
'to be' indicates an anagram.
'claimed' with letters rearranged gives 'DECIMAL'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for decimal that I've seen before include "System based on ten" , "Sort of coinage" , "System based on 10" , "(System) based on tens" , "Medical (anag.)" .)
