Question

An explorer wants to find a way through the shown maze from the point marked “Start” to the point marked “End”. It can only move horizontally or vertically and can only go through the white circles. Also, it has to go through all the white circles exactly once. When you reach the circle marked with an X, your next move will be:

Answer 1

A, up I think

Explanation:

The explorer is currently on a white circle with an X inside, and they must go through all the white circles exactly once. This means that their next move must be to either the white circle to the left or to the right of the X. However, the white circle to the right of the X is already connected to the black circle, which means that the explorer cannot use that path. Therefore, their next move must be to the white circle to the left of the X.Looking at the maze, the only way to get to the white circle to the left of the X is by going up. Therefore, the correct answer is (A) arrow pointing up.
