Answer:

Huck’s reaction to Tom’s suggestion that they saw Jim’s leg off is an example of satire.

Step-by-step explanation:

Satire is a literary device that writers use to represent the foolishness in a character through humor and irony, this part of the story when Huck and Tom are planning how to Set Jim free, they come up with a series of illogical and quite funny looney plans as they are way to complicated and fanciful to be done.
