I think is the right answer = to get out of a situation.”
“without interest in a situation.” “to get out of a situation.”Explanation:The meaning in the dictionary of the word is: "to free (someone or something) from a constraint or difficulty."The prefix ex comes from the Latin ex: "out". Therefore, to get out seems to be the correct option considering the prefix and the meaning of the word.
