10.
A dice is numbered from 1 to 6 in different ways.
If 1 is adjacent to 2, 3 and 5, then which of the following statements is necessarily true?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
If 1 is adjacent to 2, 3 and 5, then either 4 or 6 lies opposite to 1. So, the numbers 4 and 6 cannot lie opposite to each other. Hence, 4 necessarily lies adjacent to 6.

Here, we can conclude that 2,3,5 must be adjacent to 1,so there are only 2 sides left to fill and also those two numbers 4 and 6 can't be opposite, and our guess may be, if you fill 4 and 6 anywhere you could get.
1is adjacent to 6.
1is adjacent to 4.
But this correct but could not be clear because any of the options can take place.
So whatever number 4 or 6 may lie adjacent to 1 that could not be assured but
4and 6 must lie adjacent to each other, so the probability of proving the option A is should be accepted by everyone, whereas the other options may vary from individuals choice
So option A is the answer.
