A map of the continents (with the exclusion of Antarctica and the inclusion of Greenland) is included in the link below and depicts how they would fit together today. They do not completely lock perfectly as their coasts have been eroded.
Africa and South America
When all the continents fit together into one big continent, we call that Pangaea.
Alfred Wegener discovered the continents seemed to fit together (Pangaea) in 1915.
The outer edges of the continental shelves can be reasonably matched. This is how the configuration of Pangaea was established.

every one should because the continents did once fit together
The shape of the continents and the way they could fit together best suggests the formation of supercontinents in the past. Also, the distribution of biodiversity gives us information on which continents were joined and at what point they diverged.
The continents fit together just like a puzzle. The edges of the continents line up so that South America fits right against Africa.

South America and Africa are the most notable continents that fit together like a jigsaw puzzle (as all continents do). This suggests that continents were connected at one time and that they are mobile and constantly moving.
