I clarify...
On each of the six sides of the two dices, any six numbers
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9
are marked. It could be any of these ten numbers.
The condition is that it should be possible to display all the dates from 01 to 31.
Further, dates with single digits should be displayed as 01, 02, 03 etc.
What markings would make this possible, thats the question.
There's only one solution to this problem.

Aha ... thanks

12 possible sides .. and thy should combine to make 01 thru to 31.

If one were marked 0,1,2,3,4,5 and the other marked 6,7,8,9,0,1 then we could hav silly combinations like 38, so that won't work.

hi im in german do u own maths is fun             i have maths next its my fav sub

I'm guessing this is a puzzle, rather than a 'help me', so I'll leave it alone.

I suspect this puzzle should be solved in the same way as the scales one was.

Mathsy is right! This is a puzzle and crept into 'Help me' by mistake.
Anyway, I shall give the solution.
One dice is marked 0,1,2,3,4,5.
The other is marked 0,1,2,7,8,9.
Don't ask me how you get 6!

I thought, ganesh, you said there was only one solution to the problem.....was that right?

LOL!!!! That is a very good idea!

hi do u like reading my fav book is harry potter

I came looking for this topic to find the thing that ganesh said about the nth root of n that I knew that he'd said but I'd forgotten what it was that he'd said, so that I could quote him on it here.

While I was reading through the topic, I noticed the thing about splitting a number into parts to get a maximum product and I had a really nit-picky idea.

Using MathsIsFun's 15 as an example, you could technically have (-10)*(-10)*35 = 3500, or anything involving 2 negatives like that, to get a much bigger product. It's completely cheating though.
