Morning everybody,
I have a quiz
the translation may suffer a little and one question was omitted, because it relied entirely on how a certain word is written in Greek.

Anyway here is a simple quiz, to get the brain cogs turning. The possible answers are in the right of each question, if you don't know, state "I don't know"

1) Besides USA, do they hava a 4th of July in UK ? YES / NO

2) How many birthdays does a simple man have? 1/2/3/more than 5/more than 10

3) Some months have 31 days, how many have 28? 1/2/3/6/9/12

4) Can someone marry his widow's sister? YES/NO

5) Divide 30 with 1/2 and add 10. Result? 10/25/50/70/90

6) If there are 3 apples and you take 2 how many apples do you get? 1/2/3

7) The doctor gives you 3 pills and says "Get 1 every half hour". In how many minutes will the pills be taken? 20/40/60/90

8) A peasant has 17 sheep and all except 9 die. How many survive? 1/3/5/8/9

9) How many animals from each species Moses took with him in the ark? 3/2/1/0

10) How many 10 cent stamps are there in a dozen? 1/3/6/9/12/24

I liked it, I hope you like it too.

The quiz being "simple" and that it was translated from Greek, is not an excuse for the brilliant performance of DonM.

LOTS of people here at work were fooled by the questions.
Again, brilliant!
