Reasoning

By systematically checking all 28 possible dominoes in a standard double-six set (all pairs from 0-6), the domino [4, 4] is the only one not visible in the image. All other dominoes including [0,0], [1,1], [2,2], [3,3], [5,5], [6,6] and all combinations with different numbers are present.

Reasoning

The excluded domino is number 6 and 2

Reasoning

Counting the pips on the 27 shown tiles, every face value 0–6 appears seven times except the 6, which appears only six times — therefore the missing tile must be the double-six [6,6].

Reasoning

After identifying all 27 dominoes and counting the occurrences of each number, 4 and 6 appear 7 times each, while all others appear 8 times, indicating the missing domino is [4,6].

Reasoning

Counting the occurrences of each number (0-6) across all tiles shows that numbers 3 and 4 each appear 6 times instead of the expected 7 times for a standard double-six set. This discrepancy indicates that the domino [3, 4] is missing, as it is the only tile where both numbers 3 and 4 are paired together.

Reasoning

A standard double-six domino set consists of 28 unique tiles. A direct count of the 27 tiles visible in the image reveals substantial duplication (e.g., four instances of [1, 2], three instances of [2, 3], etc.) and confirms the absence of 11 unique pairs, including five doubles ([1, 1], [2, 2], [3, 3], [4, 4], [6, 6]), three zero-series tiles ([0, 2], [0, 4], [0, 5]), and three six-series tiles ([1, 6], [3, 6], [5, 6]). Since the query stipulates that only ONE domino is excluded, it implies that the 10 tiles identified as duplicates must logically represent 10 of the missing unique pairs. The [6, 6] domino is the most visually distinct high-value double and is completely absent from the image, and it is highly improbable that its absence is covered by any of the low-numbered duplicates like [1, 2]. Therefore, [6, 6] is identified as the single excluded domino.


Methodology Note

Each model receives the same domino puzzle grid. Models are tasked with identifying the missing domino using only visual clues from the grid. Their answers are evaluated without feedback or retries.
