Numbered Discs

Problem

Two discs have four different numbers written on them.


As the discs are spun their totals are added together, e.g. 5 + 8 = 13. By spinning the discs the totals 10, 11, 13, and 14 are obtained.

Use this information to work out which numbers are on the other side of the discs.
