Magic Keyring (Posted on 2005-03-28) Difficulty: 3 of 5

Engrave numbers on 5 keys on a circular keyring so that the numbers on adjacent groups of keys sum to any value between 1 and 21 inclusively.

For example, 1,1,3,6,6 can sum up to any number between 1 and 17 (1=1, 1+1=2, 3=3, 3+1=4, 3+1+1=5, 6=6, 6+1=7, 6+1+1=8, 6+3=9, 6+3+1=10, etc).

I would have said something like 1,2,4,8,9 or something alike, but that goes to 24...and doesn't have a 5.
