How to Solve Pinpoint #909
The Pinpoint 909 answer is Metal alloys. Each clue names a material made by combining a metal with other elements.
- Pewter: a tin-based alloy.
- Solder: a fusible alloy used to join metal parts, often based on tin.
- Brass: an alloy of copper and zinc.
- Bronze: traditionally an alloy of copper and tin.
- Stainless steel (Fe + Cr + Ni): the clue highlights iron, chromium and nickel in a familiar corrosion-resistant steel alloy.
The first two clues suggest manufacturing materials. Brass and bronze make the shared group much clearer. The chemical symbols in the last clue confirm that the connection is about a material’s composition.
