Cubes and Dice - Verbal and Reasoning

Q1:

Amongst the following figures, find the correct one, if it is known that the total number of dots on opposite faces of the cube shown is always 7.

A Fig.1

B Fig.2

C Fig.3

D Fig.4

ANS:A - Fig.1

Explanation: Since the total number of dots on opposite faces is always 7, therefore 1 dot must lie opposite 6 dots, 2 dots must lie opposite 5 dots and 3 dots must lie opposite 4 dots. In each of the two figures (2) and (4), 2 dots appear adjacent to 5 dots, and in fig. (3), 3 dots appear adjacent to 4 dots. Hence, these figures are incorrect. Therefore/only fig. (1) is correct.
