Suiting the needs of
Answer:
FOR
Hint:
Think of a two-letter word that often follows "good" or "bad" when describing something’s purpose or intended recipient.
Explanation:
The clue "Suiting the needs of" hints at a word meaning appropriate to or intended for. Here, "suiting" acts as a verb suggesting something fits a purpose, while "the needs of" implies serving or being directed toward something. The answer "FOR" is a preposition that neatly captures this idea—it’s the word we use to indicate purpose or intended use, like in "a gift for you." The phrasing plays on the double meaning of "suiting" as both clothing (a suit) and being suitable.
