UCAT Medentry AR Question
Why doesn't the rule include must have at least 1 white shape?

Looks like the rule for B is
number of grey sides - number of white sides = 2
so two grey circle sides = 2. For A its 1.
number of grey sides - number of white sides = 2
so two grey circle sides = 2. For A its 1.
yeah, you're right
how do you know that the pattern doesn't have second rule such as always including a white shape though?Original post by charlotte05x

how do you know that the pattern doesn't have second rule such as always including a white shape though?Because when there is a pattern like this, it is the number of sides that is relevant not the shapes themselves. It is a complicated enough pattern that they would be unlikely to include a second aspect. Also, there is no difference in the white shape numbers between Set A and Set B, allowing you to rule it out as a potential pattern. Focus on the differences between sets

Mainly both for the time to answer the quetion and the number of patterns that are available to confirm the rule and reject other ones. The new pattern conforms to the rule for B, and the number of white shapes (possibly zero, there is no evidence either way) is irrelevant in both A and B.

ahh makes sense, thankyou, so if the rule seems simple THEN try and look for a secondary rule
