Test

[milhouse]

1) You are participating in a race. You overtake the second person. What position are you in?

2) If you overtake the last person, then you are...?

3) Very tricky math! Note: This must be done in your head only.
Do NOT use paper and pencil or a calculator. Try it.

Take 1000 and add 40 to it. Now add another 1000. Now add 30. Add another 1000. Now add 20. Now add another 1000 Now add 10. What is the total?

4) Mary's father has five daughters: 1. Nana, 2. Nene, 3. Nini, 4. Nono.
What is the name of the fifth daughter?

5) There is a mute person who wants to buy a toothbrush. By imitating the action of brushing one's teeth he successfully expresses himself to the shopkeeper and the purchase is done.

Now if there is a blind man who wishes to buy a pair of sunglasses, how should he express himself?

See you're on 499 Milhouse.

I'll answer your test, but I have an idea there may be some trick questions...............

1. Second.
2. Second from last.
3. 4100
4. Mary
5. Mimic playing the piano like Stevie Wonder.

I have used lateral thinking in my answers, but am prepared to be made a fool of. ;D :P ;) 8-)

If you are starting by "taking 1000", the answer is not 4100, it is 2100, surely. Promise not to call you Shirley again!

Good questions Millhouse. Are you an avid watcher of countdown to get these questions.

These quizes keep coming and being answered before I get a chance to see them.
I've just looked at this one, got all the answers right first time, only to find that someone with not enough work to do has answered them.

GGRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!
