Yes, I see that is right, but the original answer was <. Both ways work, so, ready for the next quiz?

HERE IT IS!

1. A student correctly shows that 1/2 of 12 is seven. How?
2. Divide 35 by 1/2, add 10, subtract 23, divide by 2/1, and add 100.
3. A train that is one mile long traveling at 60 mph enters a tunnel that is one mile long. How long until the train is out of the tunnel.
4. The distance up a hill and down the other side is the same. A car averages 30 mph going up and 60 mph going down the other side. What is the average speed of the car overall?
5. Daniel claimed that "2 x 10 = 2 x 11" is a true statement. What was his explanation?
6. Write in number form, twelve billion, twelve thousand, twelve hundred and twelve. (This is ONE number!)
7. There is a one story house and everything is pink. The rugs are pink, the TV is pink, the chairs are pink, even the toilet is pink. One man lives there, he is a member of the OWP, otherwise known as "Obsessed With Pink". Everyday he leaves to go to work at 6 am and comes back at 7pm, after getting some Krispy Kreme donuts from a local store. When he gets home he unbuckles his belt, takes off his shoes and sits on a really big pink bean bag. He watches the FRIENDS in his really pink TV and puts a hot pocket in his pink microwave. After that he sits on a pink chair and eats off a light pink table. After he is done, he throws the pink plastic plate away and goes to take a shower in his pink bathroom. Everything in the bathroom is pink. There is pink everywhere, pink on the floor, pink on the sink, pink in the bath tub. Everything, and I mean, EVERYTHING is pink. After he goes to sleep in his dark pink bed and dreams of stuff that is pink. Everything that is pink he dreams of. Then he wakes up and goes to work in his pink Corvette. Then he works in his pink office building and writes with his pink pencil, then goes back home and watches pink TV. What color are the stairs?

IT'S A ONE STORY HOUSE!!!! hehe

Took me awhile, though, I was like "uhh, pink??" but then I figured it out. Yay!

[quote] 3. A train that is one mile long traveling at 60 mph enters a tunnel that is one mile long. How long until the train is out of the tunnel. [quote]

Umm, a minute? Well, at least a minute until the front part of the train is out.

Right, all of them were. I just wanted to annoy everyone with the pink one. I put way too many things, didn't I? Well, I wanted to see someone say pink. That would have been funny.

Yeah by the end I was like, "ENOUGH WITH THE PINK!!!!!!" but it was good

I should have added more stuff though, pink stuff. Anyone going to answer the other riddles?

2. 101.1
4. 45 mph
6.12,000,012,012

6 I don't get

How can you not get 6 if you just answered it?!

You got all of them right except for 2. It is really 102.5. Do it over again and see. By the way, 2/1 = 2! It is 2 ones so it is two. Get it now? Do it over and see...at least I think I am right...

Here's some.

-If you have 6 apples, and you take four away, how many do you have?

-Which hand does a monk stir his coffee with?

-Could you ever lift an elephant with one hand in any situation? (not a toy elephant)

I'd have four apples!

Wouldn't you still have 6. Its not like you eat them or throw them away.

You'd have 4.

Err for EBM's sake, you left them and they err....rotted away. And a dog ate the remains. Yes, dogs eat apples. Don't even suggest I'm wrong.

What about the others?

-Could you ever lift an elephant with one hand in any situation? (not a toy elephant)

Sure If it was the elephant that had only one hand...

Sure Smile If it was the elephant that had only one hand...

Haha, no. Cos Elephants don't have hands!

yeah you're right *shrugs*
