To solve this question, we need to identify the pattern or sequence in the figures leading up to the question mark (?).

By examining the sequence, we observe the following pattern:

1. The positions of the symbols (dash and number) change with each figure in a systematic way.
2. In the first figure, the "-" sign is placed at the top, and "4" is at the bottom.
3. In the second figure, the "-" and "4" switch positions horizontally.
4. In the third figure, the dash disappears, and only "4" remains.
5. In the fourth figure, the dash reappears at the top, and "4" is at the top left corner.

From these observations, the pattern involves the movement of the dash and "4" around the edges of a square:

• Figure 1: - on top, 4 at the bottom.
• Figure 2: - and 4 switch positions horizontally.
• Figure 3: Absence of -; only 4.
• Figure 4: - on top again but on the right.

Based on this pattern, the correct option should mirror the top position more clearly, where the dash and number have a similar arrangement to figures 1 and 4.

The correct answer is:
