i picked top right as well but dont have a 100% pattern i can put in words

its not like you could guess the right pattern for the empty space without choices but with the coices it seems to be the only one that remotely fits any pattern

so for me it was more like cancelling out which ones are for sure not right and top right was the one left over

although i think the key is to focus on the four squares in the right bottom corner. they all are the result of flipping the contents and adding something

in that case only bottom middle and top right are possible. and since in the middle row the big squares are not the same twice it has to be top right

>> No.8549142

Top right. It's in the right direction AND it was one small and one big in the left side (the only combination possible) and two smalls at the right (again, the only answer that follow a patron). Pretty easy.

Top right.

Read vertically starting from left bottom. Each line has two places for squares, left and right side. Imagine that in every case all squares are on top of the line, if they are at bottom, just place them on top in your mind.

Now start from bottom left, all overlapping squares will be substracted from one another. 2 boxes - 2 boxes = 0 boxes, you read them that way. In bottom middle we find out that 1 big box - 1 small box = 2 small boxes. Okay, use that info in the next one. We have 2 big boxes on the left, what we need so there will be only 2 small boxes left? Thats right, one big box and one small box. on right we place just 2 small boxes so 2-2 = 0.

>> No.8549175

top left. three small ones to one big, add the first two to get the third.

>> No.8549177

>>8548740
I think top right is bullshit, and just saying "it's hard to put into words is in no way logical.

I say middle bottom as there is an actual sense of reasoning behind it.

It's simple addition of the first two squares, but what we learn from the middle tile is that the "block" size maxes out at the larger size.

>> No.8549190

It's top left, right?
Squares above the line are positive, below the line are negative. We add them together and the third box on each row is the sum. The second row shows us that one big square equals 3 small squares, therefore top left fits in perfectly as the answer.

IMO it is less about always being substraction on some horizontal line and more about visualizing the blocks together and imagining their interactions, in this case when 1 big block collides with 1 small block, it results in 2 small blocks.

Right answer, absolutely retarded reasoning. I have actually designed these tests and virtually you are limited to one “vague ruling” by which I mean you can design the test with one unconventional thing to test for lateral thinking. Like “ignore the lines” etc but in this case you have more than 2, first ignore the lines, second assume that going down to up is subtraction, third is to assume that three small blocks = one big block, when a big block is visually 4x larger. One such unintuitive rule would be permissible, but not three, youre violating occams razor. The answer is top right for a completely different but very obvious reason that anyone who has studied morse code or to some degree encryption would understand. Guessing OP is taking some sort of symbolic logic course or perhaps something to do with Kolmogorov complexity, perhaps secure systems administration. I can reveal the answer but I dont want to spoil it for people still studying.

2. if blocks cancel each other out, except when big block meets small it creates 2 small blocks.

Top right is the correct answer, and it fits perfectly. You are misunderstanding something, maybe the fact that all the blocks on the right side interact only with the blocks on the right side, and same on the left. Take top right answer square and combine it with bottom middle square to get bottom left square, it works fine. first on the right side 2-2 = 0, on the left one big square cancels the other out, leaves with one big square and small square and they equal 2 small squares, as I have explained.

If it's top-right, then the makers made a mistake and allowed a different pattern to exist.

If the big box equal 3 small boxes, and hanging boxes are negative, the top left answer makes this:

0 (-2) (-2)
2 6 8
(-2) (-8) (-10)

Simple arithmetic can solve both to the right and downward.

Look at it from bottom to top for each row. small building + small building = nothing, small building + big building = small building, big building + big building = small building. Now for the last one, big building + ? = small building (so first one must be big building based on previous observations), and the two building on the right: small building + ? = nothing (so small building based on previous observations).

>>8551931
the answer is top right, and it can be verified with your link since neither the bottom middle or top left are provided as answers there.

it's a subtraction/addition problem. anything below the line is negative, anything above is positive.

so you have:
1. nothing + (-small -small) = - small -small
2. small small + small big small small = big big small small
3. -small -small + (-big -big -small -small) = -small -big -small -small

1 is supposed to clue you in as to what is going on, and 2 establishes what happens when you try adding non-zero patterns.

the only one that makes sense is top left.
read it vertically from bottom to top.
The bottom one minus the middle one equals the top of the column. Small blocks equal one, large blocks equal 3.
On the first column, 2 minus 2 = 0.
Second column, 8 - 6 = 2
Third column 10 - 8 = 2

The positioning appears to have no meaning in terms of left or right side.
