Identify the figure that best fits in place of the question mark.

Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The sequence is made of two pairs. In each pair, the outer shape and the inner shape swap places, while the circle always stays in the middle.
Pair 1:
Frame 1: Square is out, Triangle is in.
Frame 2: Triangle is out, Square is in.
Pair 2:
Frame 3: Pentagon (5 sides) is out, Square (4 sides) is in.
So in Frame 4: To follow the swap rule, the Square must move out and the Pentagon must move in.

Hence, the correct answer is option 3.
