The correct answer is
4

To determine the number of dots on the face opposite to the face with 2 dots, we need to analyze the given positions of the dice.

The two different positions of the same dice are shown above. Let's label the positions:

In the first position, the visible faces have:

  • 3 dots
  • 2 dots
  • 5 dots

In the second position, the visible faces have:

  • 5 dots
  • 3 dots
  • 4 dots

Observing both the dice positions, we find that:

  • The face with 5 dots is common and adjacent to faces with 3 and 2 dots in the first position, and faces with 3 and 4 dots in the second position.

From the positions observed, the face opposite to the face with 2 dots can be determined as follows:

  • The numbers on opposite faces must sum up to 7 in a standard dice. Hence, the opposite face to 2 dots must be:
  • 5 (5 opposite to 2 in a standard case) or 4.

However, since 5 is on the adjacent face, the face opposite to 2 dots is determined from the dice showing it must be 4 dots:

  • The common adjacent face confirms that 4 is opposite to 2.

Therefore, the number of dots on the face opposite to the one with 2 dots is 4.

The correct answer is 4.
