yes number 47 is definitely 5.
the first pattern is (starting at top left) -
bottom part of image is missing - nothing is missing - top part of image is missing
nothing is missing - top part is missing - bottom is missing
top is missing - bottom is missing - ________________________
(see how it's always the same order? bottom comes before nothing comes before top comes before bottom, etc)
the second pattern is (starting at top left) -
wave - triangle - volcano (I made up these descriptions)
volcano - wave - triangle
triangle - volcano - _________
this also is always in the same order - wave comes before triangle comes before volcano comes before wave, etc.
so it's got to be "nothing is missing wave".
clear as mud? LOL
I just counted the number of sides?
wave = 2
triangle = 3
volcano = 4
(possible spoiler alert...if I got it right, anyway?)
The trickiest one for me was the one with the circles that had either inside or outside loops. Then suddenly it clicked & I treated them as positive or negative numbers and did the sum. That's assuming I got it right, anyway...
