Puzzle #42: St. Louis Blues

So I took a trip to St. Louis last weekend and haven’t yet written a word on it. I guess that’s bound to happen sometime when I’m moving along in a hurry. Just about 24 hours in St. Louis, and nine escape rooms solved (well, eight around St. Louis and one on the way home). There were definitely a few noteworthy adventures, and I’ll provide those stories at another time. For now, it’s time for a puzzle.

Can you figure it out? This one is more of a legitimate math / logic problem than usual, but I find this kind of puzzle is a good mental workout element, like a sit-up for your brain.

Also, I got some creative answers to last week’s puzzle, and I’ll update the post to share those answers. However, no one provided the exact answer I was looking for, so the puzzle is still fair game. I’ll add more conditions to that problem to limit the set of possible solutions.

Good luck!

[su_spoiler title=”Solution”]The answer is 25. You can roll 4 of each number at 24 dice, but when you roll 25 you’ll have at least one set of 5.[/su_spoiler]
