To solve this problem, we need to look at each shape and decide if it is a
sphere or a
cube.
Step 1: Identify the Spheres
A sphere is a round, ball-shaped object. It looks like a marble or a basketball. In the picture, there are
3 spheres:
1. One in the second row (second from the left).
2. One in the third row (far right).
3. One in the bottom row (far left).
*Action:* These 3 shapes should be shaded
yellow.
Step 2: Identify the Cubes
A cube is a box shape where all sides are equal squares. It looks like a die or an ice cube. In the picture, there are
4 cubes:
1. One in the top row (far left).
2. One in the second row (far right).
3. One in the third row (second from the left).
4. One in the bottom row (far right).
*Action:* These 4 shapes should be shaded
green.
Note on other shapes:
- The long boxes (rectangular prisms) are not cubes because their sides are rectangles, not squares.
- The cylinder, cone, pyramid, and triangle prism are different shapes entirely.
- The diamond shape is flat (2D), so it is not a cube.
Final Answer:
Shade Yellow (Spheres):
- The ball in the 2nd row.
- The ball in the 3rd row.
- The ball in the 4th row.
Shade Green (Cubes):
- The box in the top-left corner.
- The box in the 2nd row, far right.
- The small box in the 3rd row.
- The box in the bottom-right corner.
