Answer should be 1.

Rotate 1st box 2 time clockwise.
Rotate 2nd box 1 time clockwise.
Overlap these boxes we get third box in each two rows.
Then this process gives 1 answer for the third row.

How? Please explain.

Balaji said:   9 years ago
When third box overlapped with second box, the common lines should be eliminated and then it comes the first box. So there is a pattern and answer would be B.

@Name has the correct explanation. Thank you.

I think, this is not a perfect answer.

If the answer is correct please explain me deeply.

There is no pattern!

Notice how the ones who got the alleged right answer "B" all have a different explanation meaning there is actually no pattern.

If there were an actual pattern their explanations would be the same (with different wording). But that is not the case and the people who are not seeing a pattern are correct.

If you were to put the first and second figures in each row on top of each other, delete all parts that overlap.

Subtract 3rd column figures from the 1st column figures and you will get the 2nd column figures.

StevieG said:   1 decade ago
The correct explanation is that for each row, see the 3rd and 2nd column; and find their intersection (i.e what is common between the two figures and you will get the figure in the first column as your answer.

The option "C" is also not common as like to option "B" then why answer is "B"?
