Answer:

Its neither.

Step-by-step explanation:

A metaphor is used in a sentence without like or as

ex: Laughter is the best medicine.

Laughter isn't medicine but we used it in a sentence without like or as

A simile is used in a sentence with like or as.

ex: She floated like a cloud.

She isnt a cloud but she acted like one.

Hope this somewhat helped
