Are you up for a new one?

You would like to use 2 wooden cubes to display the day of the month every day.

The dices are blank and you need to fill them in with digits 0-9 so that you will be able to make every combination date from 1-31.

On days that have single digit date, you will need to precede it with a 0, for example 01,02 etc.

How will you number the dices?

Good luck!

You don’t need two zeroes so there’s even one “free” square

You need either 6 or 9, because you can just place the cube upside down to switch form one to the other..

You do need both because all single digits are divided between both cubes

You will need a zero for the single digit numbers, hence the need to be on both dices

only chapped that 6 & 9 are interchangeable after I finished both cubes and found myself short with one square? Took me an extra few seconds

You are planting 7 trees in your backyard. You want to plant it so that there will be 6 rows with 3 trees in each row.

The following diagram shows 4 rows. Two across, one down and one diagonal. Can you make 6?

There is a way to make 6. Not necessarily tricky just lots of trial & error. Let me know if you need a hint

A 10-volume encyclopedia ,labeled A thru J, sits on a bookshelf in an orderly fashion. Each volume contains 100 pages. A book worm starts at the first page of the first volume and worms it's way thru til the last page of the last volume. How many pages did the worm tunnel thru?
