1. **Problem Statement:** We have 7 domino pieces with values: (3,5), (6,6), (0,1), (4,2), (2,4), (2,3), (3,1). We want to find the longest chain where adjacent domino ends have matching numbers. 2. **Rule:** Dominoes can be connected if the touching ends have the same number. 3. **Approach:** We try to form the longest sequence by matching ends: - Start with (3,5). - (3,5) can connect to (3,1) because they share 3. - (3,1) can connect to (0,1) because they share 1. - (0,1) can connect to (2,3) only if 1=2 or 1=3, which is false, so no. - Try (0,1) to (4,2) no match. - Try (6,6) chain separately. 4. **Try another chain:** - (4,2) connects to (2,4) because 2=2 or 4=4. - (2,4) connects to (4,2) again, but no repeats allowed. 5. **Try chain:** (6,6) connects to (3,1) no. 6. **Try chain:** (2,3) connects to (3,5) because 3=3. 7. **Longest chain found:** (3,5) - (3,1) - (0,1) is length 3. 8. **Try chain:** (4,2) - (2,4) length 2. 9. **Try chain:** (2,3) - (3,5) - (3,1) - (0,1) length 4. 10. **Try chain:** (6,6) - (3,1) - (0,1) no. 11. **Try chain:** (6,6) - (3,1) - (2,3) - (3,5) - (3,1) no repeats. 12. **Try chain:** (6,6) - (3,1) - (2,3) - (3,5) length 4. 13. **Try chain:** (4,2) - (2,4) - (4,2) no repeats. 14. **Try chain:** (6,6) - (3,1) - (2,3) - (3,5) - (5,?) no domino with 5. 15. **Try chain:** (6,6) -
