Spatial Intelligence Test Puzzle

So here we go again, another great puzzle that I came across. I don’t know why, but I especially love this these ones as they give you a feeling that it’s gonna be a quick thing – like a matter of seconds but most of the time it ends up taking you a lot more to be completely sure. I think this is one of the best way to really train the spatial part of your brain and make it go to it’s limits – and eventually move the limits higher and higher as you solve this type of puzzles on a regular basis. A lot of people think that the IQ cannot increase, but it’s far from the truth. Everything can be improved in life, it’s just the way how you position yourself to it. Your believes and open-mindness are the most important factors to influence actually all things in life, not just your learning abilities.

So here comes the question:

Imagine you are looking at a 2D grid with five rows and five columns. Each cell in the grid represents a square.

You are starting at position (3, 3), which is the central square. You can move up, down, left, or right by one square at a time.

Your task is to determine how many moves it takes to reach position (1, 5), which is the top-right corner of the grid, using the shortest path.

What is the minimum number of moves required to reach the destination?

A) 6 moves B) 5 moves C) 4 moves D) 3 moves

Select the correct answer (A, B, C, or D) that represents the minimum number of moves to reach the destination from the starting point.
