fit together

Mesh into place

To fit together is for parts to join or combine properly, like puzzle pieces or components of a machine: The shelves fit together without tools.

Things that fit together complement each other or work as a unified whole.

Figuratively, ideas or evidence fit together when they form a coherent picture: Once I learned about his past, everything fit together.
