Another r/theydidthemath feature, this question is allegedly from a job interview, and unlike some other strange interview puzzles I've seen - this one has some pretty straightforward and definitive patterns. That would make it a terrible question, but it goes out of its way to exclude many reasonable answers so there ends up being one pretty definitive solution by the end. #interviewquestions #mathpuzzle #maths
