You decide to start a business selling clocks.

You decide Roman numerals make a clock look a lot more stylish and that all of the clocks you sell will use Roman numerals. In the interest of efficiency, you need a single mold that will create all of the numbers necessary for your clock. Each mold set can be cut however necessary (i.e group two I's or a single I, etc), but each numeral on the clock has to be a single piece (i.e. the XI has to be next to each other on the mold set). You can use more than one mold set for each clock, but every symbol on the mold sets used have to be used. If you have extra V's, extra I's, extra X's, then you're just wasting resources.

What should be the layout of each moldset (i.e. - what Roman numerals should be on each set) and how many sets are necessary for each clock.

Oh, darn. I can't delete this and repost even immediately after posting. How did I wind up one level to high when I posted this?!
