Question

Select the suitable figure from the answer figure that would replace the question mark (?)

• A. (A)
• B. (B)
• C. (C)
• D. (D)

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

The problem presents a sequence of figures, and the task is to identify the pattern and select the figure that logically follows to replace the question mark (?).

Pattern Observation:

1. The problem figure shows a sequence of boxes. Each box contains one circle and one cross.
2. Observe the movement pattern:
   • In the first box, the circle is at the bottom-left, and the cross is at the bottom-right.
   • In the second box, the circle moves to the top-right, and the cross remains at the bottom-right.
   • In the third box, the circle remains fixed at the same position (top-right), but the cross moves to the middle-left.
3. Inference:
   • The circle and the cross seem to alternate their positions following a predictable pattern. The circle moved from the bottom-left to the top-right, and the cross moved one step counter-clockwise after the initial step.

Solution:

• Since the circle and cross positions alternate, and based on the previous movements, for the fourth box:
  • The circle should move to the bottom-right position.
  • The cross should move to the top-left position.

Thus, the correct option that matches this pattern is (D).

Conclusion: The logical sequence involves specific positional movements of the circle and cross, and option (D) follows this observed pattern.
