The numbers 1 to 25 appear randomly on the sides of five pentagonal spinning tops. If all five tops are spun at the same time, the following results could occur.
a) 1 4 9 10 11 b) 2 4 17 21 22 c) 2 11 12 16 24
d) 3 5 16 19 23 e) 3 18 19 24 25 f) 4 9 10 18 19
g) 4 10 18 20 22 h) 4 17 18 19 22 i) 6 10 16 22 23
j) 7 19 22 24 25 k) 8 13 16 18 19 l)10 11 12 14 19
m)10 15 19 21 22 n)10 16 18 20 22 o)13 15 18 19 22
