Answer 1

Given:

qImage679f1b1977b68733bb3f678e From cube I and II

As, 2 and 5 are common in both cube so, 4 will opposite to 6.

From cube I and III

As, 2 and 4 are common in both cube so, 5 will opposite to 1.

Opposite pairs.

4 ⇔ 6

5 ⇔ 1

3 ⇔ 2

Now checking for the value of A and B in IV cube.

Option 1) (4, 2)

qImage679f1b1a77b68733bb3f6791

These values cannot be possible for A and B as 3 is opposite to 2. So, 3 and 2 cannot be placed in adjacent sides.

Option 2) (5, 2)

qImage679f1b1b77b68733bb3f6792

These values cannot be possible for A and B as 3 is opposite to 2. So, 3 and 2 cannot be placed in adjacent sides.

Option 3) (6, 5)

qImage679f1b1b77b68733bb3f6793

These values are possible for A and B as, no opposites pairs are on adjacent.

Option 4) (6, 2)

qImage679f1b1b77b68733bb3f6794

These values cannot be possible for A and B as 3 is opposite to 2. So, 3 and 2 cannot be placed in adjacent sides.

So, the values for A and B is (6,5)

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".
