The image shows a sequence of four squares, each divided into four equal parts. In each square, one part is shaded black.
Let’s look at the position of the black shaded part in each square:
1. First square: bottom-left corner is shaded.
2. Second square: top-left corner is shaded.
3. Third square: top-right corner is shaded.
4. Fourth square: bottom-right corner is shaded.
This looks like the shaded part is moving clockwise around the corners of the square:
- Start at bottom-left → move up to top-left → move right to top-right → move down to bottom-right.
So the pattern is:
clockwise rotation of the shaded corner.
If we were to continue this pattern, the next shaded part would go back to the
bottom-left corner — completing the cycle.
But since the question doesn’t ask for the next one (and no options or further instruction are given), and based on what’s shown, the task seems to be identifying the pattern or confirming the sequence.
However, looking again — the image only shows 4 squares with one shaded corner each, rotating clockwise. There’s no explicit question, but in many such problems, the goal is to recognize the pattern or predict the next step.
Since you didn’t specify what to do beyond “solve the problem,” and given the context of homework help, I’ll assume the implied task is:
→ *What comes next in the sequence?*
Following the clockwise pattern:
After bottom-right → next should be
bottom-left.
✔ Final Answer: The next shaded part should be in the
bottom-left corner.
Final Answer: bottom-left
