Question

Choosing from options A, B, C, D, E — which figure will come next in the series?

• A. A
• B. B
• C. C
• D. D
• E. E

Hint:

In additive series, count the number of components in each step ($1, 2, 3...$) to quickly eliminate options with the wrong count.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Analyse options.
- Each figure in the series adds one element to a pattern of connected squares. - If the first figure has 1 square, the second 2, and so on, the next figure must have the subsequent number of elements arranged in the same directional growth (e.g., clockwise addition).
Step 2: Conclusion.
Figure C matches the required step in the growth pattern. Final Answer: (c) C
