In a complex arrangement, 9 boxes are placed in 3 rows and 3 columns. Box at position (1,2) contains Red balls. Position (2,3) contains Green balls. Position (3,1) contains Blue balls. If you need to place Yellow balls such that no two colors share a row or column, where should Yellow go?
Answer: A
Red at (1,2) blocks row 1 and column 2. Green at (2,3) blocks row 2 and column 3. Blue at (3,1) blocks row 3 and column 1. Yellow must avoid: rows 1,2,3 and columns 1,2,3 - impossible for standard placement, but (2,1) conflicts with Blue's column 1. Rechecking: (1,3) at row 1 conflicts with Red's row. (2,1) at column 1 conflicts with Blue's column. Best option avoiding maximum conflicts: (2,1).
