So I have uploaded a question from CDP on keyhole.

For the picture attached, the right answer is not shown, but I wanted to ask:

1) For choice A, there is a big hole. What happens if that grey hole was white? I could still slide it through, right?

2) Also for choices A and E, do those tiny holes have to be there or would I still be able to slide it through?

3)Lastly, how do I figure out when there should be holes, and when there should not be? For example look at choice D, they have no holes at all. Is D more correct than A and E in terms of the hole situation?


Thanks!

I think it's E if I'm correct ill explain my reasoning if not I won't even bother lol! Let me know. And it depends on which side you slide it through. I don't think it's choice A
 
The holes have to be there because the "legs" are extending outwards so they would need a hole to get in. Imagine if this were a table and the extensions are the legs, the legs hold the table up, so in order to basically get the table to "touch" the outline you would need to put the legs somewhere. Idk if this made sense. Sorry haha I tried

Holes are there for things to fit through, I don't think a circle hole makes sense because the circle won't be going through anything. The only thing that needs to get through are the three circular extensions or "legs" I think A was put to just confused you, then it's between choices D and E, which then it all depends on what side you're sliding it through.

it's neither A nor E. OP says that the answer is not shown. Obviously, the answer must be C since it's the one not shown.

The tiny holes have to at least be white and the big hole has to be gray. The tiny buttons have to get through a hole.

In terms of the current situation, D is more correct than the other answers. If you have things protruding out of our image, they need a hole to get through. If you have a hole in your original image, you should look for a grey hole in one of the answer choices to try and fit that hole.
 
Oh oops I thought he meant we had to guess the answer! Sorry I'm functioning on an alnighter!
 
when you see 'shading' in the hole punches assume that it's a solid wall...lol

for example...with those shadings something that has a hole in an original image would go through it: in choice A the big hole os correct because in the original image we have a big cut out hole BUT the three smaller holes are incorrect because in the original image we have little things sticking out and they wouldn't go through choice A because the little holes in choice A would prevent the little sticks from going through the keyhole...

so...if it there were no little holes in choice A but only the big one - A would be the correct answer.
D- would be correct if there was a big hole in there but there is none- therefore it is not the correct answer
E- would be correct if three little holes weren't there and one big one would be there.

therefore C (not shown) is the correct answer

* anytime you see shading in the keyhole - assume that it's there as a block and will prevent anything that is not cut out from going through the keyhole
I hope this makes sense...this was a weird explanation lol
