The image shows a game board titled
"Doubles Hoppin'" with the instruction "Roll a die, double it, cover the answer." The board consists of a grid of numbers arranged in a circular pattern around a frog character. The numbers on the board are:
- 12, 10, 12, 6, 4
- 8, 4, 10, 2
- 4, 2, 8, 12
- 6, 10, 6
- 8, 2, 8, 6
- 10, 12, 2, 4
Problem Analysis:
The task involves rolling a six-sided die and doubling the number rolled. Then, you must find the doubled number on the board and cover it. The goal is to understand how this game works and identify which numbers can be covered based on the rules.
Step-by-Step Solution:
1.
Understanding the Rules:
- Roll a six-sided die (numbers 1 through 6).
- Double the number rolled.
- Find the doubled number on the board and cover it.
2.
Possible Outcomes When Rolling a Die:
- If you roll a 1, double it: \( 1 \times 2 = 2 \).
- If you roll a 2, double it: \( 2 \times 2 = 4 \).
- If you roll a 3, double it: \( 3 \times 2 = 6 \).
- If you roll a 4, double it: \( 4 \times 2 = 8 \).
- If you roll a 5, double it: \( 5 \times 2 = 10 \).
- If you roll a 6, double it: \( 6 \times 2 = 12 \).
3.
Identifying Doubled Numbers on the Board:
- The doubled numbers from the die rolls are: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12.
- Check if these numbers appear on the board:
-
2: Appears multiple times on the board.
-
4: Appears multiple times on the board.
-
6: Appears multiple times on the board.
-
8: Appears multiple times on the board.
-
10: Appears multiple times on the board.
-
12: Appears multiple times on the board.
4.
Gameplay Mechanics:
- Each time you roll the die, you will always get one of the numbers 1 through 6.
- Doubling any of these numbers will result in one of the numbers 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, or 12.
- Since all these doubled numbers are present on the board, you can always find a number to cover after each roll.
5.
Objective:
- The objective is likely to cover as many numbers as possible or to cover specific patterns or all numbers on the board, depending on additional rules not explicitly stated in the image.
Final Answer:
The game involves rolling a die, doubling the result, and covering the corresponding number on the board. All possible doubled numbers (2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12) are present on the board, so every roll will allow you to cover a number.
\boxed{2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12} are the numbers that can be covered based on the rules.
