Question 1:

The numbers on the opposite faces of this box add up to 7. • Which number was on the opposite side of 5? • In the picture, which number will be at the bottom?

• Which number will Gibli see if she again turns left from 5? • What will this box look like if you opened it up? Mark the correct picture.

Answer:

  • We are given that the numbers on the opposite faces of the box add up to 7.Thus, the number on the opposite side of 5 will be 2 as the sum of 5 and 2 is 7.
  • In the picture, 1 is given on the top face of the box. We are given that the numbers on the opposite faces of the box add up to 7. Thus, the number at the bottom of the box will be 6 as the sum of 1 and 6 is 7.
  • In the picture, 4 is given on the front face of the box. We are given that the numbers on the opposite faces of the box add up to 7. So, the number on the back face of the box will be 3. So, when Gibli turns left from 5, she will see the back face of the box that bears number 3. Thus, Gibli will see number 3 when she turns left from 5.
  • The correct picture is given in option A
