What is the cadastral number for the 1:2000 bottom left map?

Cadastral numbers pin down a precise map sheet by using a grid that splits the area into four quadrants. Each quadrant gets its own section number, so locating a parcel hinges on identifying which quadrant the map shows. For a 2x2 grid, the bottom-left quadrant is labeled as the fourth section. Since the coordinates CM 14°49'N -120°54'E are the same across the options, the only difference is which quadrant is indicated. The bottom-left map corresponds to section four, so the cadastral number should include sec. 4. That’s why the option with sec. 4 is the correct one.
