Question of the Week Monday 5 September
There are 5 questions this week again and each is worth 1 point.

  1. 1. If there are 196 legs and 126 eyes at the dog show, how many people and how many dogs are present? (All the people and all the dogs at the show have the normal number of eyes and legs.)


    2. Magan, Harooun, Billie, and Nagaff went to the dog shelter. They saw four puppies.

    Frisky and Pal were black with pointy ears.
    Snoopy and Wiggles were white with floppy ears.
    Frisky and Snoopy were sleeping.
    Pal and Wiggles were playing.

        

    Magan didn't want a black puppy.
    Harooun didn't want a puppy with floppy ears.
    Billie didn't pick a puppy that was sleeping.
    Nagaff took the puppy that Billie and Billie didn't want.

    Who took which puppy?


    3. Who says "Science is Real'?

    4. I don't understand the SJOTW. Please explain it to me.



    5. You awake inside a small transparent capsule sitting on the surface of Venus. From a small speaker you hear a voice that says, "We will leave you here either for a day or a year. If you choose to stay a day, we will give you $1 million. If you choose to stay a year, we will give you $2 million. Either way, you will have sufficient food and water. We will make sure the temperature is a constant 25 degrees Celsius. We will also supply cable TV."

    What is your choice? (Don't let money decide your answer).

    Have Fun

    SJOTW: science joke of the week!! .. an atom is balanced out by positive protons and negative electrons. If a atom looses an electron, they are no longer equal to the amount of protons, and the atom becomes positive. The "i'm positive" is a play on words - I'm happy and the atom is positive.
