Read the story

When we slide a shape, it moves without turning.

Every corner moves the same distance: here, 5 squares to the right.

The shape stays the same size and looks exactly the same.

A corner in column 3 slides 6 squares to the right. Which column is it in?

Answer and working

Correct! 3 plus 6. It's in column 9.

3 + 6 = 9
