    The correct answer for 19 is B. Every row and column has exactly one white arrow and two black arrows.

      Look at black arrows all black arrows cover each corner round the diamond starting with first arrow on left. The next one white arrow pointing r corner. So what is the last corner with white arrow to cover. D. Go clock wise

      @@carolynesimpson6070 That is true but there is nothing to logically conclude there should be a white arrow pointing to all corners of the diamond just as there was for the black arrows. Prior questions on Mensa tests will often have the same number of X on every row and every column. So I'd argue that my answer follows this pattern.

      True. Im looking at it differently. Taking a different angle. Pardon the pun!.... there are 9 Diamonds . Do each angle first on 8 Diamonds Because there are 9 it makes you look at the pattern differently. If only 8 it would easy. Making you think outside the box. In this case the Diamond.

      @RuudWalraven Рік тому +1

      I think the explanation is wrong also. The first row, second to third goes from horizontal to vertical and changes color. In the second row, first to second, that doesn't happen. Then in the third row he expects a color change?
      The explanation that would lead to B is much simpler; each row has two black arrows. (Same for each column)
      The least complicated solution is usually correct 😊

    There seems to be an error in your analysis. For # 19, you stated that when the arrow goes from horizontal to vertical it doesn't change color. However, in the top row the arrow goes from horizontal to vertical and does change color.

    Q19: the first 2 rows have 2 black arrows, therefore the 3rd row should have 2 black arrows as well. So, the answer should be B, a black arrow facing upward.

    I don't know if I agree with your solution for question 19. Every diagonal that points leftwards, just like every row and every column, has 2 pieces with black arrows. Moreover, every diagonal that points rightwards preserves the color of the arrow.

    The arrow will be black, not white with question 19 because the previous 2 rows have 2 black arrows which means the 3rd row will also have a black arrow. This means the correct answer is B, not D.

  • @carolynesimpson6070
    @carolynesimpson6070 2 роки тому

    The way I worked out no. 19 is...... there are 9 diamonds. If there was 8 it would be easy.....so each black arrow faces a corner/ a point. Throw in one more to confuse you. So each white arrow has to point to a corner FIRST. Think of a clock . 12 noon, quarter past, half past, Quarter too. Do those first!! With white arrows. That’s the way I worked it out . A bit long winded but not when working it out. Lol. SO THE ANSWER IS D. Pointing 12 noon!......
