Grouping of Images — Questions and Answers

Grouping of Images asks you to sort a set of figures into groups sharing a common property. The property is usually structural — number of sides, presence of curves, symmetry, or number of enclosed regions. Decide the classifying property first, then assign every figure; adjusting the property halfway is what produces inconsistent groups.

Grouping of Images— Concepts, Formulas & Shortcuts

  • Fix the classifying property BEFORE assigning any figure to a group.
  • Common properties: side count, curved versus straight, symmetry, enclosed regions.
  • Every figure must belong to exactly one group.
  • If a figure fits two groups, the chosen property is not precise enough.
  • Groups are usually equal or near-equal in size in exam questions.
  • Verify by re-reading the property against each assigned figure at the end.

  1. Q1.In grouping of images, the first step is to:

    Easy
    • AAssign figures at random
    • BFix the classifying property
    • CCount the options
    • DChoose the largest figure
    +Show Answer & Explanation

    Answer: B. Fix the classifying property

    Explanation: The property must be settled before any figure is assigned, or the groups become inconsistent.

  2. Q2.Which property would separate a circle and an ellipse from a square and a triangle?

    Easy
    • ASize
    • BPresence of curves
    • CShading
    • DPosition
    +Show Answer & Explanation

    Answer: B. Presence of curves

    Explanation: The first two are curved figures and the last two are rectilinear.

  3. Q3.If a figure appears to fit two groups, it means:

    Moderate
    • AThe figure is wrong
    • BThe classifying property is too loose
    • CBoth groups are correct
    • DThe question is faulty
    +Show Answer & Explanation

    Answer: B. The classifying property is too loose

    Explanation: A precise property assigns every figure to exactly one group.

  6. Q6.Which property distinguishes a square from a rectangle?

    Moderate
    • ANumber of sides
    • BAll sides equal
    • CRight angles
    • DBeing closed
    +Show Answer & Explanation

    Answer: B. All sides equal

    Explanation: Both have four sides and right angles; only the square has all sides equal.

  7. Q7.In grouping questions, each figure must belong to:

    Easy
    • ANo group
    • BExactly one group
    • CTwo groups
    • DAll groups
    +Show Answer & Explanation

    Answer: B. Exactly one group

    Explanation: A valid classification partitions the set, assigning each figure once.

  8. Q8.If your grouping produces one group of five and one of one, you should:

    Moderate
    • AAccept it
    • BReconsider the classifying property
    • CMerge the groups
    • DDiscard a figure
    +Show Answer & Explanation

    Answer: B. Reconsider the classifying property

    Explanation: Exam groupings are normally balanced, so a lopsided split suggests a different property is intended.

Grouping of Images — Frequently Asked Questions

What if a figure seems to fit two groups?+

Your classifying property is too loose. Tighten it — for example from "has straight lines" to "has exactly four straight sides" — until each figure belongs to exactly one group.

Are the groups always the same size?+

Usually, in exam questions. If your grouping produces one very large and one very small group, it is worth checking whether a different property gives a more balanced and therefore more likely split.
