    If I'd get a cent everytime I see this... man, I'd got many cents! ;P BTW: this version is kinda unfair, though. The "right" answer for the apple question isn't, well, right (or at least you couldn't get the answer from the question, it doesn't say "you're in a store"). Hail Eris! All Hail Discordia!

    I interpreted that correctly. It didn't say who has the apples in the first place. It just says that "you take away" two apples. How many apples do you have? Well, if I "take" two apples then I must have two apples. --Colin Mackay--

      I got 9 out of 12. But I claim that 2 were unfair on the grounds that I know nothing about baseball (a culturally dependend question) and I know nothing of butcher (do they still exist?) shops. --Colin Mackay--

      Same here (9 out of 12). The baseball question stump me (for known reasons), but I should have gotten the rest!

        My solution - take the test backwards. The first questions initially got me confused but once you've gone through them backwards it is surprisingly easy! (BTW: I guessed the baseball one and the math got me for five minutes as I tried to work out why the answer would undoubtedly not be the 15 I kept working it out as.) :-O

Roger Wright wrote: A perfectly legal operation, of course, but it probably won't have the result they're expecting. :-D I was studying with a group, and I held the magic wand (aka Dry erase marker), so I was up on the board doing things...they couldn't figure out why I kept dividing things by 1/2 when they said "Divide by half". One of them got it about a minute later and threw her eraser at me. They haven't said it since. :)

                                  Just curious ... What have other people that have missed number 11 put down for their answer? I entered: 70 I'm not sure why I entered that number ... I don't even know if I meant pounds (lbs) or kilos (kg) or some other measurement of weight. For some reason it seemed logical to that the butcher's height in inches just might be the correct answer. :wtf: What were you thinking? :confused:

                                    In case you didn't find this out already, Moses wasn't the dude associated with the whole Ark and flooding the Earth incedent. That was Noah ... Noah's Ark The big boat story ... loaded up the animals two by two ... Come on ... Even an Atheist should have at least heard of this story ... even if is completely against your beliefs ... or maybe known of Moses and his little adventure in Egypt back in the day. "Let my people go." Oh well, I can't say anything cuz I didn't know that a buthcer weighs meat ...
