How smart/dumb are you?

Question

Here's a little test for you. I will post the answers very soon. Once it's done, I will show you the scoring chart so you can see just how bright/dull you are. :o)


1. Do they have a 4th of July in England?
2. How many birthdays does the average man have?
3. Some months have 31 days, how many have 28?
4. How many outs are there in an inning?
5. Is it legal for a man in California to marry his widows sister?
6. Divide 30 by 1/2 and add 10. What's the answer?
7. If there are 3 apples and you take away 2, how many do you have?
8. A doctor gives you 3 pills, telling you to take one every half hour. How many minutes would the pills last?
9. A farmer has 17 sheep, and all but 9 die. How many are left?
10. How many animals of each sex did Moses take on the ark?
11. A clerk in the butcher shop is 5' 10" tall. What does he weigh?
12. How many two cent stamps are there in a dozen?
13. What was the President's name in 1960?

I missed two.

I am not going to post the answers until more than two people answer! What would be the point of pointing up the answers before people answered them with their own answers? Impatient people...

To NancyKay and youre "you gave it away too easy!" you still got two wrong, lmao. Find out later when i post the answers which two you got wrong.

I believe that it has been long enough.

Here are the answers
1. Yes. Just because you dont celebrate it, doesnt mean you dont have a july 4th.
2. No one has more than one birth, so only one birthday.
3. All the months have 28 days
4. There are six
5. He's dead
6. 70. Most people took half of 30, but really 30 divided 1/2 is 60.
7. Two. You took them.
8. Sixty. You didnt have to wait thirty minutes to take the first one.
9. Nine. It says 'all but nine'
10. Moses didnt do it. Noah did.
11. Meat. He weighs meat.
12. There are twelve stamps to a dozen. Doesnt matter how much the stamps are worth.
13. George Bush. His name is the same now as it was back then.
