To solve this puzzle, let's look at how the purple slice moves in each step.
1.
Analyze the Circle: The circle is divided into 5 equal sections (like slices of a pie). Let's number them 1 to 5, starting from the top and going clockwise.
* Top = Position 1
* Top-Right = Position 2
* Bottom-Right = Position 3
* Bottom-Left = Position 4
* Top-Left = Position 5
2.
Track the Movement:
*
First Image: The purple slice is at the
Bottom-Left (Position 4).
*
Second Image: The purple slice moves one step counter-clockwise to the
Top-Left (Position 5).
*
Third Image: The purple slice moves one step counter-clockwise again to the
Top (Position 1).
3.
Find the Pattern: The pattern is simple: the purple slice moves
one position counter-clockwise in each step.
4.
Predict the Next Step:
* From the third image (Top/Position 1), if we move one step counter-clockwise, we land on the
Top-Right section (Position 2).
5.
Check the Options:
* Option 1 shows the slice at the Bottom-Right.
* Option 2 shows the slice at the Bottom-Left.
* Option 3 shows the slice at the
Top-Right.
This matches our prediction.
Final Answer: 3
