I'm looking at the number of sides each shape has in total, circle has infinite sides so I am counting is as 0. Think of this as a number pad. 1 = 10 sides, 4 = 4 sides, 7 = 10 sides. 2 = 6 sides, 5 = 4 sides, - 8 = 6 sides. 3 = ? sides, 6 = 4 sides, 9 = 4 sides. Since 1 and 7 = 10 sides, 2 and 8 = 6 sides, shouldn't 9 and 3 = 4 sides? There are multiple ways of doing this. In my opinion, it should be B. I also can absolutely see how it is D.

You raise a valid point. In many of these types of questions, the correct answer is typically the one that is most probable based on the available information. In this instance, option 'D' is correct as it also considers the shapes present in the middle row.

I got A as answer and it is wrong.

I Saw pattern where 3rd column comes from. What is in 2nd column inside that goes on 3rd column outside and what is 1st column outside goes 3rd column inside.

there should be only 1 pattern possible. not multiple what matches and only 1 right

- We take the outer shape of the first figure and make it the inner part of the new shape in Col3.

- We then take the inner shape of the second figure and make it the outer boundary of the new shape in Col3.

Hope this helps!

Each shape should shows up 6 times total, counting the outer and purple shapes together.

Answer: 6 circles on board total (4 outer 2 inner), 6 squares show up (2 outer 4 inner). 4 hexagons on board, need to add 2 more hexagons then!

Each section is made up of two shapes - the inner and outer shape

In each row: Outer shape of section 1 + inner shape of section 2 = the inverse of section 3

e.g. Triangle (Outer) of sec.1 + Square (Inner) of sec.2 = Triangle (Inner) + Square (Outer) of sec.3

The shapes and outlines all transfigures into another outline and shape respectively in their column, but this can be done in any order. The transformation CAN ONLY BE DONE ONCE IN THAT COLUMN from each outline and shape.
