I got two puzzles for you, /sci/.

Which of the 6 figures at the buttom fit the pattern; and more importantly, why?

Upper right. The point is to add all the boxes on the same side and then substract all the right boxes from the left boxes of same colour.

2 black squares on the left.
It's pretty self explanatory.

And here there are three versions of each shape. There is the original, then there is one cut into two where the right half is flipped 180 degrees, and one where the both halves are mirrored horizontally. |_| is the original and _|_ is the one with both mirrored, thus the answer is again upper right.

What?

Oh nvm, you made this a lot more confusing

Well done! Both are correct!

You have to read it top-down, not left to right.

All of them do, and more importantly, because you can encode the information in the drawings as an integer, so we have a finite integer sequence which can NOT determine a unique "next term", any term is equally "plausible", asking for which one fits is subjective and irrational.

These are from the Finnish Mensa online test, right? You should just go and take the real one, I couldn't figure these out but the real test was a lot easier and got accepted into Mensa.

What about this one?

solve your iq test on your own

Consider the lines around the squares, and cancel the ones overlapping. First row gives us that in the middle column the NW or the NE line corresponds with the left line in the left column. The second row gives us that there is a correspondence between the upper line in the left column and the NE line in the middle, so that we now know the middle columns to be squares rotated 45 degrees clockwise.

Using the remarks above, it is easy to see that the third row gives the square in the lower left option.

It can actually be done both ways.

Nope, this is from the ACE test - the positions are not relevant.

Right you are!

bottom row, 2nd one
