8) I. This is probably the hardest
one. The pattern is 1, 2, 3 for the first row; 2, 4, 6 for the second
and 3, 6, 9 for the third. The pattern is scrambled to increase
difficulty and disguised by different entities that pertain to this
pattern (ex A-the first letter of the alphabet, HUMAN-a biped,
TRIANGLE-a three sided object).
