Hint 2 of 2
The right piece is like a jigsaw piece: its wiggly edge must fit the hole and its little drawings must match what is missing.
Show solution
Approach: find the piece whose shape and drawings fit the hole
- Look at the gap torn out of the big map and notice the shape of its jagged edge.
- Check each option like a puzzle piece: its outline must fit the hole and its little map markings must match the missing spot.
- Piece B is the only one that fits, so the answer is B.
