Welcome to the art studio. Storage labels use shapes and words, so the case can be solved on a black-and-white printout. Your team has the original records on the table. First recover five pieces of information, then use the final plan to locate the shape-print exhibit. Keep every result beside its badge so another teammate can check your reasoning.

Start with the status field in Print receipts.
The tag links an item to a bay; rows in separate records need not line up.
Keep only entries meeting every status test. Follow each printed join to the report field; do not guess from row position.
KITE
Check source status first, then join the matching tag and bay. The useful information comes from separate records, not their printed row order. Result: KITE.
Read each supply card and the three required needs.
A light card alone may leave a need uncovered; a shared supply counts for both needs.
Compare complete combinations, adding each chosen card weight once. Reject any combination over the limit before choosing the lightest.
A-B
Compare coverage before weight. Only complete kits qualify; minimize their combined weight and report the selected cards in alphabetical order. Result: A-B.
Find the column letters and row numbers on the grid.
A coordinate gives column first and row second; keep the printed coordinate order.
Read the full word before using the conversion table. If the word is missing, recheck each row and column rather than choosing a similar word.
7
C2, D3, A2, B3 reads ARTS. The conversion table gives 7. Result: 7.
Find opening stock, closing stock and the DONE or CANCELLED marks.
Only completed entries change stock. A cancelled plan cannot be added or subtracted.
Apply every known completed change to opening stock. Compare that result with closing stock to recover the missing completed return.
1
Known stock: 11 + 4 - 1 = 14. Closing stock 15 minus 14 gives the missing return 1. Cancelled +7 never arrived. Result: 1.
Find the equal parcels and the separate loose units.
Remove the loose units before sharing the remaining weight among equal parcels.
Find one parcel from the first equation, then substitute that weight into the second equation before recording it.
4
Remove 1 from 9; share 8 among 2 parcels to get 4. Check 2 x 4 + 3 = 11. Result: 4.
Keep the five named results beside the final plan and find the key for each badge.
Each badge controls a different fact, road leg, order note, pulse or habitat layer. Use the matching key exactly once.
Check the completed product against all five recovered facts. If two answers remain, locate the fact that distinguishes them rather than guessing.
BAY-G
Translate each recovered result through its named evidence key. Each location must match all five recovered features. Both values occur equally often in each column, so the location plan alone cannot identify the answer. Checked result: BAY-G.
Pause whenever the group needs a break. This is a planning estimate.
