  • A(a)
  • B(b)
  • C(c)
  • D(d)

Step-by-Step Solution

The views fix the pairs 1–2, 3–4 and 5–6. Die (c) shows 4, 1 and 5 together, which is allowed, but (iii) already shows the same three faces: top 4, left 5, right 1. Going round the corner the order in (c) is reversed, so (c) is a mirror image. (a), (b) and (d) all fit.
Answer: C) (c)
