The image shows a puzzle with interlocking pieces, like a jigsaw puzzle. The task is to count how many pieces are in the puzzle.
To solve this, we can count the pieces by looking at the rows and columns.
1.
Count the columns: Looking at the top edge of the puzzle, we can count 6 distinct columns of pieces.
2.
Count the rows: Looking at the left edge of the puzzle, we can count 8 distinct rows of pieces.
3.
Calculate the total: Since the puzzle is a grid, we can find the total number of pieces by multiplying the number of columns by the number of rows.
Total pieces = (Number of columns) × (Number of rows)
Total pieces = 6 × 8
Total pieces = 48
Final Answer:
48
