Answer: Option A
Explanation:
The figure may be labelled as shown.
The regions A, C, E and G can have the same
colour say colour 1.
The regions B, D, F and H can have the same
colour (but different from colour 1) say colour 2.
The region 1 lies adjacent to each one of the
regions A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H and therefore it should have a different
colour say colour 3.
The regions J, L and N can have the same
colour (different from colour 3) say colour 1.
The regions K, M and O can have the same
colour (different fromthe colours 1 and 3). Thus, these regions will have
colour 2.
The region P cannot have any of the colours 1
and 2 as it lies adjacent to each one of the regions J, K, L, M, N and O and so
it will have colour 3.
The region Q can have any of the colours 1 or
2.
Minimum number of colours required is 3.
