Special dice (Posted on 2011-10-30) Difficulty: 4 of 5
Two six sided dice are marked with 12 different integers, so that any number from 1 to 36 can be derived when both dice are thrown and the showing face-up values are added.
What is the lowest possible value of the highest number on one of the dice faces?

Correct. There are only 36 possibilities, so redundancy is not possible.
