Question

A dice is numbered from 1 to 6. Which number is opposite to 5?

The correct answer is
3

To solve this problem, we need to determine the number on the face opposite to the number 5 on a standard six-faced die. From the image provided, we can observe the following faces:

  1. From the first dice position in the image: Faces visible are 1, 5, and 4.
  2. From the second dice position: Faces visible are 5, 2, and 1.
  3. From the third dice position: Faces visible are 4, 3, and 2.

In a standard six-faced die, the numbers are arranged such that opposite faces sum to 7. Therefore, the pairs are:

  • 1 opposite to 6
  • 2 opposite to 5
  • 3 opposite to 4

From the above configuration and the visible faces in the image, we identify that the number opposite to 5 is 3, because it is not visible in any position where 5 is visible, confirming it is on the opposite face.

Thus, the correct answer is: 3.
