Answer:
Option A
Explanation:
ok so firstly this is super duper easy! all you have to see first in these type of questions is the "sequence" or the "pattern". and you have to make a ittle equation with this, so the first picture has 1 square, secound one has 5, the third one has 9, and the fourth one has 13.
- so firstly see or find a specific sequence.
13 - 9 = 4
9 - 5 = 4
5 - 1 = 4
so we found out "4" is the main changing unit. Now lets make a short formula which will help us determine any number ahead of the picture.
so lets do 4x = number of squares, x= figure number
4(1) = 4 :: wrong, because the first figure has only one square
so, 4x - 3
4(1) - 3 = 1 :: correct! this euqation works!
Now, we need to find how many squared there are in figure 100, so ->
4(100) - 3 = 397 squares!
and now doing the question will be easier, because option A says 1 square in the centre and 99 sqaures on each side.
So-> 99 + 99 + 99 + 99 +1 = 397! boom!! got the answer!
