  • A9
  • B11
  • C10
  • D13

Step-by-Step Solution

The bottom is opposite the top. 1 is seen with 2, 4, 5 and 6, so 1 is opposite 3; 2 is seen with 1, 4, 6 and 3, so 2 is opposite 5. Bottoms: (i) and (ii) have 1 on top, so 3 below each; (iii) has 2 on top, so 5 below: . (13 would come from taking 4 as the face opposite 2.)
Answer: B) 11
