Question

Three different views of a dice are shown in the figure below.

The piece of paper that can be folded to make this dice is

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

From the first view of the dice, it is clear that:

opposite face of $4$ is either $2, 3$ or $6.$

Now, from the second view of dice, it is clear that opposite of $4$ can't be $3$ and $6.$ 

So, opposite face of $4$ is $2$.

Now, opposite face of $5$ is either $3$ or $6.$

Now, from the third view of dice, it is clear that opposite of $5$ can't be $6.$

So, opposite face of 5 is 3.

And the rest, opposite face of 1 is 6.

So,

4 is opposite to 2.

5 is opposite to 3 and

1 is opposite to 6.

Now, options are given in the unfolded shape of the dice.

So, to visualize how to make it as a folded dice, you can refer here and here   

Hence, Answer is A.
