Hint 2 of 2
Scan every horizontal neighbouring pair in the diagram and see which option's two symbols actually sit next to each other.
Show solution
Approach: find a matching adjacent pair in the grid
- Karina removes a 1-by-2 horizontal piece, i.e. two neighbouring symbols.
- Check each option's pair against horizontally adjacent cells in the grid.
- Only the star-and-club pair from option B appears side by side.
- So she can cut out B.
