What is the correct pair of code and its destination from the checkerboard clue?

• A. 4297 - the shooting gallery
• B. 2140 - the shooting gallery
• C. 4297 - the book push cabinet
• D. 1234 - the shooting gallery

Answer: (A)

A checkerboard clue uses a grid where numbers map to coordinates or steps, and following the clue’s path of moves lands on a specific square that has a name and a code. In this puzzle, tracing the clue through the grid leads to the square labeled the shooting gallery, and that square’s code is 4297. The digits reflect the grid’s coordinates or the sequence of moves dictated by the clue, so this pairing fits the encoding rule exactly. The other options would require a different path or map to a different square, which isn’t supported by the given clue, so they don’t match the same grid logic.
