Which two boxes would you choose to prove this true: If a box shows a vowel on one side, then it has an even number on the other side.
Which two?
They are each a box by the precision of your statement. Hence, each box comprises six sides. Any of the boxes could meet the condition as it is stated and hence all of them must be inspected to verify the truthfulness of the statement as a universal for all four boxes. But there is nothing in the way the problem is stated to imply a universal truth for the four box population. Hence, the truthfulness can apply to "a box", one that actually shows a vowel.
Answer: Box E is a must. Choosing any other box may or may not validate the assumption so stated, but if the statement is true, Box E must show and even number on the side opposite in the six-sided box in question.

You're overthinking it, they're only two-sided (originally posed as cards). Plus, you're half right.....![]()

Which two?
The first two
The first box had a vowel on one side so the hidden other side must have an even number. The second an even number, the hidden side a vowel.
The other two show neither a vowel or an even number so the hidden would be the same.

Answer E and 7.
This also proves that Annabenedetti and I are the most intelligent people in the world.
E is obviously the first box.E

Which two boxes would you choose to test this rule: If a box shows a vowel on one side, then it has an even number on the other side.
E would give you the rule's veracity, since an even number must appear on the opposite side.
4 would give you an answer if the rule is reciprocal.
If not then only E gives you an answer and no second card is helpful.
7 and K wouldn't test the rule, because while the rule insists a vowel turns to an even number and, (perhaps) conversely, an even number must produce a vowel, it doesn't stipulate as to what rules apply to odd numbers or consonants. They are, after a fashion, free agents for all we know and may produce the same or contrary results.
