Dice

Question: If the even numbers of dice have odd number of dots on their top faces and odd numbered dice have even of dots on their bottom faces, then what would be the total number of dots on their top faces?
[A].

12

[B].

14

[C].

16

[D].

18

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

No. of dots on the top faces of the dice (II), (IV) and (VI) are 1, 1 and 1 respectively.

No. of dots on the top faces of the dice (I), (III) and (V) are 5, 5 and 3 respectively.

Required total = 5 + 5 + 3 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 16

Question: If the dice (I), (II) and (III) have even number of dots on their bottom faces, then what would be the total number of dots on their top faces?
[A].

7

[B].

11

[C].

12

[D].

14

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

No. of dots on the top faces of dice (I), (II) and (III) are 5, 1 and 5 respectively.

Required total = 5 + 1 + 5 = 11

Question: If dice (I), (II) and (III) have even number of dots on their bottom faces and the dice (IV), (V) and (VI) have odd number of dots on their top faces, then what would be the difference in the total number of top faces between there two sets?
[A].

0

[B].

2

[C].

4

[D].

6

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

No. of faces on the top faces of the dice (I), (II) and (III) are 5, 1 and 5 respectively.

Therefore, Total of these numbers = 5 + 1 + 5 = 11

No. of dots on the top faces of the dice (IV), (V) and (VI) are 1, 3 and 1 respectively.

Therefore, Total of these numbers = 1 + 3 + 1 = 5

Required difference = 11 – 5 = 6

Question: If the odd numbered dice have even number of dots on their top faces, then what would be the total number of dots on the top faces of their dice?
[A].

8

[B].

10

[C].

12

[D].

14

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Odd numbered dice are : (II), (III) and (V)

No. of dots on the top faces of these dice are 2, 2 and 4 respectively.

Required total = 2 + 2 + 4 = 8

Question: If even numbered dice have even number of dots on their top faces, then what would be the total number of dots on the top faces of their dice?
[A].

12

[B].

14

[C].

18

[D].

24

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Even numbered dice are: (II), (IV) and (VI)

No. of dots on the top face of (II) dice = 6

No. of dots on the top face of (IV) dice = 6

and No. of dots on the top face of (VI) dice = 6

Therefore Required total = 6 + 6 + 6 = 18

Question: Here 4 positions of a cube are shown. Which sign will be opposite to ‘+’ ?
[A].

%

[B].

–

[C].

x

[D].

$

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

From position I and III common face with % is in the same position. Hence according to rule (3) opposite is X.

Question: Observe the dots on the dice (one to six dots) in the following figures. How many dots are contained on the face opposite to the containing four dots?
[A].

2

[B].

3

[C].

5

[D].

6

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Here one of the two common faces (5) is in the same position, then according to the rule no (2) the remaining face with the 4 dots will be opposite to face with dots 2.

Question: Here two positions of dice are shown. If there are two dots in the bottom, then how many dots will be on the top?
[A].

2

[B].

3

[C].

5

[D].

6

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Here the common faces with 4 dots are in same positions.

Hence 2 will be opposite to 5.

Question: From the positions of a cube are shown below, Which letter will be on the face opposite to face with ‘A’?
[A].

D

[B].

B

[C].

C

[D].

F

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

The letters of the adjacent faces to the face with letter A, are B, F, C and E. Hence D is the letter of the face opposite to the face with letters (A).
