We have a board of directors with 12 members and one strongbox. Calculate the minimum numbers of locks and copies of their keys that you need distribute between the members in order to get that:
1) 5 members NEVER can open the strongbox
AND
2) any combination of 6 members CAN open the strongbox.
Saludos
