Raven's Progressive Matrices Test Raven's Progressive Matrices Number and Quantity Patterns 3

Question 1

A Raven's matrix assigns element counts where each position's count equals the square of its position number (position 1=1, position 2=4, position 3=9). What number appears at position 4?

Accepted Answer

16

Answer

Position 4 squared = 4² = 16, extending the established pattern of perfect squares.

Question 2

In a matrix where the quantity of shapes follows a Fibonacci-like sequence (each value is the sum of the two preceding values), starting with 1, 1, what is the 5th value?

Accepted Answer

5

Answer

Fibonacci sequence: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5 — the 5th value is 5.

Question 3

A Raven's matrix diagonal displays the values 1, 4, 9. This sequence is best classified as:

Accepted Answer

A sequence of perfect squares

Answer

1=1², 4=2², 9=3² — the values are the perfect squares of consecutive integers.

Question 4

In a 3×3 Raven's matrix, the row totals are 6, 9, and 12. If all three column totals are equal, what does each column total equal?

Accepted Answer

9

Answer

The grand total is 6+9+12=27; divided equally among 3 columns gives each column a total of 9.

Question 5

A matrix shows quantities 5, 10, 20 in the first row and 3, 6, 12 in the second row. What single rule is common to both rows?

Accepted Answer

Doubling each cell value

Answer

Both rows double from each cell to the next: 5→10→20 and 3→6→12.
