  • A(a)
  • B(b)
  • C(c)
  • D(d)

Step-by-Step Solution

In (c) the 2 and the 3 are the middle squares of the two rows of three, which fold onto opposite faces; in (d) the 1 and the 3 are one apart in the row of four, so they would be opposite. Neither can show 1, 3 and 2 together. Nets (a) and (b) both bring 1, 3 and 2 together at a corner, but only (b) has them going round in the same order as the picture; (a) gives the mirror image.
