    #19 is 'B' not 'D' . Note the diagonal colour patten. Black only bottom right.

      yes i agree with you! always two black in every row and only one white color in every row

    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.

    • @carolynesimpson6070
      @carolynesimpson6070 ปีที่แล้ว

      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.

      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.

    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.

    Q19 explanation in video confusing ... saying: 'Vertical to horizontal it changes color ... but horizontal to vertical it won't change color' so why changing the color to white? It should remain black. Also applying to row 2 the second arrow.

  • @carolynesimpson6070
    @carolynesimpson6070 ปีที่แล้ว

    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!......
