The task asks to mark out 12 circles and color them.
Let’s count how many circles are in the image:
- There are 4 rows.
- Each row has 4 circles → 4 × 4 = 16 circles total.
We need to mark (and color) only 12 of them.
So, we can choose any 12 circles — for example:
- Color all 4 circles in Row 1
- Color all 4 circles in Row 2
- Color all 4 circles in Row 3
→ That’s 12 circles. Leave Row 4 uncolored.
Or you could do it differently — as long as exactly 12 are colored.
Since the instruction says “mark out” and “color”, you should visually select 12 circles and fill them in with color or shading.
Final Answer:
Color any 12 of the 16 circles shown.
