Question

For the given net of dice, find the values of a,b and c.

• A. a = 1, b = 3, c = 3
• B. a = 2, b = 3, c = 1
• C. a = 1, b = 3, c = 2
• D. a = 1, b = 2, c = 3

Answer 1

The correct option is C a = 1, b = 3, c = 2

Let the number opposite to 6 be a , opposite to 4 be b and opposite to 5 be c.
As we know, the sum of the number on the opposite faces of dice is 7.
Hence, a + 6 = 7
$⟹$ a = 7 - 6 = 1
Hence, b + 4 = 7
$⟹$ b = 7 - 4 = 3
Hence, c + 5 = 7
$⟹$ c = 7 - 5 = 2

So, the value of a = 1, b = 3 and c = 2.
