Question: 319

8. Below are three boxes in an L-shape. Which figure in the answers can be covered without any spaces or overlapping boxes by placing several L-shape pieces on it?

  • A.
  • B.
  • C.
  • D.

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

The answer is C

First, determine how many answers have a number of squares that is divisible by 3, as the shape you need to fit in has 3 squares. Eliminate (A), (B), and (D). Now work through either answer to determine if the shape you need to fit in can fill the larger grid.
