Here is a smart check, e-mail me your answer at wpfing1@agstar.com and I'll send you the correct answers if they aren't correct:

1. Some months have 30 days, some months have 31 days. How many months have 28 days?

2. If a doctor gives you 3 pills and tells you to take one pill every half hour, how long would it be before all the pills had been taken?

3. I went to bed at 8 O'Clock in the evening and wound up my clock and set the alarm to sound at 9 O'Clock in the morning. How many hours sleep would I get before being awoken by the alarm?

4.Divide 30 by half and add ten. What do you get?

5. A farmer had 17 sheep. All but 9 died. How many live sheep were left?

6. If you had only one match and entered a COLD and DARK room, where there was an oil heater, and oil lamp and a candle, which would you light first?

7. A man builds a house with four sides of rectangular construction, each side having a southern exposure. A big bear comes along. What colour is the bear?

8. Take 2 apples from 3 apples. What do you have?

9. How many animals of each species did Moses take with him in the Ark?

10. If you drove a bus with 43 people on board from Chicago and stopped at Pittsburgh to pick up 7 more people and drop off 5 passengers and at Cleveland to drop off 8 passengers and pick up 4 more and eventually arrive at Philadelphia 20 hours later, what's the name of the driver?

I just printed this so I can have a better look at them and study them a little longer. I know there is a trick to them so I have to be careful. LOL

Why not just post it on the site then you can just tell us if we are correct or not?

1. They all have 28 days
2. 1 1/2 hours
3. 13 hours
4. 25
5. 9
6. light the match first
7. white bear
8. 2
9. 2 of each male and female
10. Sheryl

I know that some of these will be wrong, because there is a trick to it and I just don't know it. I did answer as what I thought I read.

Answers:
1. All of them. Every month has at least 28 days

2. 1 hour. If you take a pill at 1 then another at 1:30 and the last at 2, they will be taken in 1 hour

3. 1 hour. It is a wind up alarm clock which cannot discriminate between a.m.and p.m.

4 70. Dividing by half is the same as multipling by 2.

5. 9 live sheep

6. The match

7. White. If all walls face south, the house must be on the North Pole

8. 2 apples. I have 3 apples, YOU take 2, what do YOU have?

9.None. It was Noah, not Moses

10. YOU are the driver
