Solution

The correct option is B

1 column


We can observe from the figure that the rectangle has 4 rows and 3 columns.

4×3=12 dots in it.

For a square, we must have an equal number of rows and columns.

To make it a square we must add one column , i.e., we need to add 4 dots.

Now rows and columns both becomes 4, and the number of the balls becomes 4×4=42=16
