ENf1261486

--video-solution--

2

--explanation--

To make sense means something is logical, reasonable, or easy to understand. When someone says That makes sense, they are saying they agree or understand the reason behind it. For example:

  • Person 1: We should save our work regularly to avoid losing progress. - This person offers a solution to keep the progress of work without losing it.

  • Person 2: That makes sense. – This shows the second person agrees with the idea.
