Which country in Group B can be added to Group A? Why? It has nothing to do with spelling or pronunciation.

Group A: Argentina, Iran, Jordan, Netherlands
Group B: Bolivia, Finland, Mongolia, Pakistan, Rwanda, United States


Solution:

The lowest land elevation of each country in Group A is below sea level. Respectively, the lowest points (in meters) are: Laguna del Carbon (-105), Caspian Sea (-28), Dead Sea (-408), and Zuidplaspolder (-7). Thus, the United States, whose lowest point is Death Valley (-86), can be added to Group A.
