Answer :

To determine which city experiences the driest climate based on the given chart, we need to focus on the "Average Annual Precipitation (in mm)" column. The driest climate is indicated by the city with the smallest average annual precipitation.

Here is the average annual precipitation data for each city:
- Las Vegas: 110 mm
- London: 600 mm
- Singapore: 2,340 mm
- Moscow: 688 mm

We compare the average annual precipitation values:
- Las Vegas has 110 mm,
- London has 600 mm,
- Singapore has 2,340 mm,
- Moscow has 688 mm.

The city with the smallest value in this comparison is Las Vegas, which has an average annual precipitation of 110 mm. Hence, Las Vegas experiences the driest climate among the given options.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

B. Las Vegas
