​Four people (Bob, Jim, Ken, and Travis) are participating in a parade.  They are each riding a different vehicle (on a float, in a golf cart, on a bike, or in a truck bed), and wearing a different costume (sheep, baseball uniform, clown, or bear).  Match each person with the appropriate vehicle and costume.

  • The four people could be referred to as the person wearing a clown costume, the person wearing the baseball uniform, the person riding in a truck bed, and Jim. 
  • Another way of referring to the four people is the following: Ken, the person wearing the clown costume, the person wearing the sheep costume, and the person riding the golf cart.
  • The person dressed as a baseball player is riding on a float.
  • When asked where he would be in the parade, Bob said he wasn’t sure, but he would either be on a float or riding a bike.​​​
A printable version of the grid can be found here.
