On folding the given die, which number will be opposite to the number 12?
To determine which number is opposite to the number 12 on the given die, we need to understand the folding pattern of the die. The die is represented in a net (a 2D representation of a 3D cube) as shown in the image.
In this type of problem, adjacent numbers in the 2D net will not be opposite to each other once the die is folded. Numbers that are on the same line but are not touching each other in the unfolded net will typically be opposite once the die is folded.
- Observe the numbers adjacent to 12: 3 and 6.
- These numbers will not be opposite to 12 because adjacent numbers cannot be opposite each other.
- Now, find the number that is not adjacent to 12. In the unfolded net, the number 15 is not adjacent to 12.
- When the die is folded, number 15 is placed on the opposite face to number 12.
Thus, the number opposite to 12 is 15.
Correct Answer: 15
