Which 2 continents have the most obvious fit of their coastlines?
South Africa and South America.
Which two continents have the most obvious fit of their coatslines?
Africa and South America from a global perspective. If you look real close though you can stick some other far coastlines together.
Why don't the present shape of the continents fit perfectly into a supercontinent?
One reason is because the Coastlines of land masses change over time. If you map the edges of the continental shelves, the fit is much better.

Why don't the present shapes of the continental fit perfectly into a supercontinent?
Changes in sea level, erosion, and deposition of sediment call all change the shapes of coastlines. What fit together even better than the continents themselves are the continental shelves. These areas were once dry land but dropped below sea level as Pangaea broke up. Even these can become somewhat distorted by tectonic forces.

yes
What is the main idea of continental drift?
which 2 continents have the most obvious fit of the coastline
Who don't continental coastlines fit perfectly together now?
because of erosion over time.
