C is correct. Total number of spots = 12. Larger number of spots (7) is below.
Abstract Reasoning – AR4
Rules
Set A Rule
Regardless of the nature of the shapes themselves there must be an equal number of black and shaded shapes but the combined total is always at least one more than the total number of white shapes
Set B Rule
Regardless of the nature of the shapes themselves there must be an equal number
of black and white shapes but the combined total is always at least one fewer than the total number of shaded shapes.
AR4-1 Answer Neither
More black shapes than either white or shaded so cannot be either.
AR4-2 Answer A
One black and one white but only one shaded so cannot satisfy B. One shaded and one black (= 2 shapes) which is one more than the white shape so must be A.
