Question

Given below are three different positions of a dice. Find the number of dots on the face opposite the face bearing $3$ dots.

• A. $4$
• B. $5$
• C. $6$
• D. Cannot be determined

Answer 1

The correct option is C $6$

From figures (i), (ii) and (iii), we conclude that $3,4,6$ and $1$ dots appear adjacent to $2$ dots. Therefore, $5$ dots appear opposite $2$ dots. Now, from figures (i) and (iii), we conclude that $2,4$ and $1$ dots appear adjacent to $3$ dots. Therefore, either $5$ or $6$ dots appear opposite $3$ dots. Since, $5$ dots appear opposite $2$ dots, it follows that $6$ dots appear opposite $3$ dots.
