Hint 2 of 2
Notice the up and the down cancel, and the lefts and rights almost cancel — track the net shift.
Show solution
Approach: follow the moves and find the net shift
- The moves are right, up, left, down, right.
- Up and down cancel, so the counter ends in its starting row; right + left + right leaves a net of one square to the right.
- Starting from the marked square, ending one square to its right matches picture B.
