Answer: b. memory we can connect to knowledge we already have is recalled better.

Explanation: Real-world problems which most times we have experienced and known is easily recalled because they appear real to us. Hence, we can give a detailed explanation of such problems unlike things we just read from books which might be abstract to us because we have not had a knowledge of that.
