HARD 4x5
Last night Amanda hosted a jigsaw puzzle night among friends, with a little friendly competition. There were five jigsaw puzzle to complete, one per couple, with a race against the others to be the fastest to finish. Each pair was assigned a celebrity style couple nickname, a hybrid of their two names. From the clues given, can you determine the position each couple placed, how many pieces were in their puzzle, and what their puzzle picture was?
