Dice – Sample Questions

Dice questions in competitive examinations are generally based on opposite faces, adjacent faces, rotations, common-face analysis, hidden faces, and folded cube visualization. Practicing different varieties of questions improves logical reasoning speed and helps candidates solve complex problems accurately.

The following fully solved sample questions cover the most important patterns frequently asked in SSC, Banking, Railway, Insurance, Defence, and aptitude examinations.


Sample Question 1 – Finding Opposite Face

Two different positions of a dice are shown below:

Position 1 → Top = 2, Front = 3, Right = 5

Position 2 → Top = 2, Front = 3, Right = 4

Which number is opposite to 5?

Solution:

  • Faces 2 and 3 are common in both positions.
  • The remaining faces are 5 and 4.
  • When common faces remain in the same position, remaining faces become opposite.

Therefore:

5 is opposite to 4


Sample Question 2 – Adjacent Face Identification

A dice shows the faces 1, 3, and 6 together in one position.

Which statement is definitely correct?

  • 1 is opposite to 3
  • 3 is opposite to 6
  • 1 is adjacent to 6
  • 6 is opposite to 1

Solution:

  • Faces visible together are always adjacent.
  • Since 1 and 6 appear together, they cannot be opposite.
  • Therefore 1 is adjacent to 6.

Correct Answer: 1 is adjacent to 6


Sample Question 3 – Hidden Face Problem

In a dice, faces 2, 4, and 5 are visible.

Which face cannot be opposite to 2?

  • 4
  • 1
  • 3
  • 6

Solution:

  • Visible faces are adjacent faces.
  • Therefore 2 is adjacent to 4 and 5.
  • Adjacent faces cannot be opposite.

Correct Answer: 4


Sample Question 4 – Common Face Logic

Two positions of a dice are shown:

Position 1 → 1, 2, 3

Position 2 → 1, 2, 5

Which face is opposite to 3?

Solution:

  • Faces 1 and 2 are common.
  • Remaining faces are 3 and 5.
  • Remaining faces become opposite.

Correct Answer: 5


Sample Question 5 – Rotation Concept

A dice is rotated several times.

Which relationship always remains unchanged?

  • Visible face position
  • Top face
  • Opposite faces
  • Front face

Solution:

  • Rotation changes orientation only.
  • Opposite-face relationships never change.

Correct Answer: Opposite faces


Sample Question 6 – Impossible Combination

If face 2 is opposite to face 5, which arrangement is impossible?

  • 2, 1, 3
  • 5, 4, 6
  • 2, 5, 1
  • 2, 4, 3

Solution:

  • Opposite faces can never appear together.
  • 2 and 5 are opposite faces.
  • Therefore they cannot be visible together.

Correct Answer: 2, 5, 1


Sample Question 7 – Adjacent Face Analysis

If face 4 is adjacent to faces 1, 2, 3, and 5, then which face is opposite to 4?

  • 1
  • 2
  • 3
  • 6

Solution:

  • Every face has four adjacent faces and one opposite face.
  • Faces 1, 2, 3, and 5 are adjacent to 4.
  • The only remaining face is 6.

Correct Answer: 6


Sample Question 8 – Symbol Dice Question

A dice contains the symbols:

★, ▲, ●, ■, ◆, ✦

If ★ appears together with ▲ and ●, then which statement is correct?

  • ★ is opposite to ▲
  • ★ is opposite to ●
  • ▲ and ● are adjacent to ★
  • ▲ is opposite to ●

Solution:

  • Visible faces are adjacent.
  • Therefore ▲ and ● are adjacent to ★.

Correct Answer: ▲ and ● are adjacent to ★


Sample Question 9 – Open Dice / Net Question

In an unfolded cube net, face A is connected directly to faces B, C, D, and E.

Which face will be opposite to A after folding?

  • B
  • C
  • D
  • F

Solution:

  • A cube face can have only four adjacent faces.
  • B, C, D, and E are adjacent to A.
  • The remaining face F becomes opposite to A.

Correct Answer: F


Sample Question 10 – Mixed Logic Question

Two positions of a dice are shown:

Position 1 → 2, 4, 6

Position 2 → 2, 4, 1

Which face is opposite to 6?

Solution:

  • Faces 2 and 4 are common.
  • Remaining faces are 6 and 1.
  • Remaining faces become opposite.

Correct Answer: 1


Quick Solving Tips

Visible Together → Adjacent Faces

Common Faces Same Position
        │
        ▼
Remaining Faces Opposite

Opposite Faces
Never Appear Together

Rotation Changes Position
Not Relationships


Most Important Concepts Used in Questions

Concept Question Frequency
Opposite Faces Very High
Common Face Method Very High
Adjacent Faces Very High
Dice Rotation High
Open Dice / Net Folding High
Symbol-Based Dice Moderate

Final Takeaway

Most dice questions can be solved quickly using opposite-face logic, common-face analysis, adjacency rules, and elimination techniques. Candidates who regularly practice visualization and rotational reasoning become highly efficient in solving dice problems in competitive examinations.
