Okay. So, 924 pieces are inside. Let’s divide to see how many times 22 goes into 924. 924/22 = 42. So now, multiply 3 by 42 to do the same thing the opposite way. The product is 126. There are 126 edge pieces in the puzzle. You can do 126/924 to get the fraction in simplest form to be 3/22. To find the total number of pieces, add both numbers up. The sum of the two numbers is 1,050. There are 1,050 total pieces in the puzzle.
