How many 12 sided dice does Mark have? ** Mark has 60% 12 sided dice, so 60/100 * 10 dice in his bag = <<60/100*10=6>>6 12 sided dice.
How many 12 sided dice does James have? ** James has 75% 12 sided dice, so 75/100 * 8 dice in his bag = <<75/100*8=6>>6 12 sided dice.
How many dice will the boys need to buy to play their game? ** They will need to purchase 14 dice - 6 dice - 6 dice = <<14-6-6=2>>2 dice.
