Step-by-Step Solution

In the net, the two ? squares are opposite 3 and 1 (a square and the one two places along a row are opposite). On the folded die, 4, 6 and 5 meet at one corner in the order top 4 → left 6 → right 5. Only one way of filling the blanks gives that turning order, and it puts 4 next to the 1, i.e. opposite 3. (The other way round would give the mirror-image corner.)
