Ah, come on!The maths, I intend to show, are right. Two dice have a combined total of 12 faces & 42 pips. 42 is more than three times the sum of faces (i.e. 36), hence the saltem.

Oh, I see... That wasn't clear to me, because saltem was so far from the number it was meant to modify.I said ter totidem saltem, to mean 'at least three times as many (as 12, that is 36).
I'll grant that, but let's just call it a 'riddle-within-a-riddle'.That wasn't clear to me, because saltem was so far from the number it was meant to modify.
Does anyone qualify with 'at least' when he means precisely that number?there's usually a possibility for it to be that exact number
No, but few people disguise such statements in a mathmatical operation'Wow, what a turnout. There's at least a hundred people here!' = 'I'm certain there are more than a hundred people here.'
And we wouldn't want anything disguised in a riddle.No, but few people disguise such statements in a mathmatical operation
