Add together the previous two addition/subtraction then +1. Once hits 10 you start over at -1. That's a pattern to get 23. Probably isn't the correct answer because people who make these IQ tests are fucking retarded who assume there cannot possibly be different, correct answers.

The reason these problems exist in IQ tests at all is for pattern-recognition ability. If someone sees a pattern that is consistent and not what the writer thought of, they have better pattern-recognition skills than writer and the people who approved the question. The explanation >>11383069 is also extremely poorly written.

A and C is not arbitrary, but B should honestly be accepted. It's kind of silly to think the "but is not exactly the same" rule is extrapolatable from one datapoint. That's the problem with these tests, you need to make some specific assumptions to find the "correct" pattern.

No it shouldn't. The upper pattern changes so it can't stay the same in the lower part either. It has to change and it has to change the same way. It's C. C has double the lines, just like upper left compared to right one. And all are in the shape of X so it can't be A. And D is laughable. Nobody answers that.

Why assume right to left transformations, aside from the answers - by the way, none of which are correct - there is no reason to think that.
There is a concurrent transformation of right to left and top to bottom and even diagonal to diagonal. What is the correct shape?

it would be top right, rotated 90 degrees. top left would then be the sum of top right and bottom left, and bottom right would be their average

Can't be 40. It's an odd number. The series is one even number, followed by two odd numbers, followed by three even numbers, and the first of the four odd numbers was provided. Try to do better Anon.

[Anonymous No.11385669]

>>11385571
Why assume?
Because it has left to right transformations. Upper right has half of the lines than upper right. That's the transformation.
Only 1 is a possible answer in these kinds of tests. It can't be A or D. Because all are in the shape of X. So it has to be B or C. It can't B because there's a transformation. So it must be C. You know, deductive reasoning you absolute brainlet.

So it’s C because the image in the top right is the result of subtracting part of the image in top left quadrant. The image in the bottom right is the result of a subtraction occurring in the bottom left. The image in C would fit this.

c = one upward facing semicircle
d = one downward facing semicircle

RT (right top) = LT - c - d

BL (bottom left) = e + f # i.e, image C

kek, how does it feel to know you overthink your retarded answers with mental gymnastics?

Rotation is a lot of operations more than subtracting which is the most natural answer given there is only 3 bits of information to deduce a fourth one.
Rotation only makes sense in bigger matrixes, and it's not only rotation but addition.
