Suppose you have two maps of USA of different 
scales. Now you place the smaller map inside 
the bigger map such that it falls completely 
within it. 

Condider each point on the map to be a distinct 
city!! 

QUESTION: Are there any city/cities on the 
smaller map which will coincide with the 
city/cities  on the bigger map? If so why?
