Answers to the Twenty Fun, Fast Mind Power Questions
By Christopher Westra

Here are the answers. I've copied over every question also so you don't have to look back and forth.
One. If there are three apples, and you take away two, how many do you have?
Answer - Two! If you you take two (let's say one in each hand), how many do you have? Two.
Common Wrong Answer - One. We are programmed since childhood to look at how many apples are left, but that's not what this question asks for.
Two. Can a man in Utah legally marry his widow's sister?
Answer - No. If she is a widow, then he is dead, and at least in Utah, you can't marry a dead body.
Three. You are all a bunch of great folk! Spell folk out loud three times. F-O-L-K, F-O-L-K, F-O-L-K. Super - now what do you call the white part of an egg? Write it down.
Answer - Egg White. The Yolk is the yellow part.
Common Wrong Answer - Yolk (programmed with Folk).
Four. In baseball, how many outs are there in an inning?
Answer - Six, three for each team.
Five. How much dirt is there in a hole two feet by two feet wide, and also two feet deep?
Answer - None. It's a hole, and there is no dirt in a hole.
Common Wrong Answer - Eight cubic feet.
Six. If a farmer has 15 white sheep standing in a field and all but five drop down and die, how many of the sheep are left standing?
Answer - Five. All but five drop down and die.
Common Wrong Answer - Ten. Many people use subtraction (15-5=10) although the question doesn't call for it.
Seven. Hurry now, you are being timed, remember? Quickly spell Ten out loud three times. T-E-N, T-E-N, T-E-N. Good, now what are aluminum cans made of?
Answer - Aluminum
Common Wrong Answer - Tin (programmed by Ten)
Eight. A clerk in the butcher shop is 5 feet, 11 inches tall. What does he weigh?
Answer - Meat. He works in a butcher shop. He weighs meat!
Common Wrong Answer - Uh....I can't know that.
Nine. How many birthdays does the average man have?
Answer - One. We just celebrate it year after year, but we only have one birthday.
Common Wrong Answer - About 76..
Ten. If a female doctor gives you three pills and tells you to take one every half hour, how many minutes will the pills last?
Answer - 60. Let's say you get the pills at 5:00, and take the first pill right then, at 5:00. Then you take the second at 5:30, and the last at 6:00. In sixty minutes, the pills are gone.
Common Wrong Answer - 90.
Eleven. Some months have 31 days. How many have 28?
Answer - 12, or all of them. They all have 28 (at least).
Common Wrong Answer - One, or just February
Twelve. If you set a round container in the sun containing ten cups of water, and 10 percent of the water evaporates each day, how many days will it be until the water is gone?
Answer - Never. Every day, 90 percent of the water is left. If that continues to happen, there will always be water left in the container.
Common Wrong Answer - Ten. If ten percent of the original amount evaporated each day, this would be true, but that's not what the question asks.
Thirteen. You are doing so good! I'm sure you have all correct so far. Remember to hurry. Do they have a fourth of July in England, Yes or No?
Answer - Yes, of course. They don't jump from the third of July to the fifth. That would be strange.
Common Wrong Answer - No, conditioned by thinking of the fourth of July as a holiday (Independence Day). The question doesn't say anything about holidays or celebrations.
Fourteen. How many four cent stamps are there in a dozen?
Answer - 12. There are 12 of anything in a dozen.
Common Wrong Answer - Three. Some people divide 12 by 4 to get 3, although the question doesn't call for division.
Fifteen. A snail named Ed lives at the bottom of a 30 foot well and decides to climb out. He can climb up three feet in one day, but every night he slides back down two feet. How many days will it be before Ed gets out of the well?
Answer - 28. On day 1 he reaches a high point of 3 feet, then slides back to 1 foot. On day 2 he reaches a high point of 4 feet and slides back to 2. On any day, the high point reached by Ed is two more than the number of the day. On day 28 he will reach 30 feet and climb out.
Common Wrong Answer - 30, based on averaging one foot per day for thirty days.
Sixteen. Some people have a lot of pots. Spell Pots out loud three times. P-O-T-S, P-O-T-S, P-O-T-S. Ok, what do you do when you come to a green light?
Answer - Go. It's a green light.
Common Wrong Answer - Stop, programmed by the letters in pots.
Seventeen. Divide eight by one half, and write your answer.
Answer - 16. Eight divided by two is four. Eight divided by one half is 16. (One half goes into eight sixteen times).
Common Wrong Answer - Four, programmed by thinking I asked you to divide eight "IN" half, which would be four. But that's not what the question was.
Eighteen. It's dark in your room and you need to grab some clothes. You know you have ten blue socks and ten black socks in your drawer. What is the fewest number of socks you need to take to make absolutely sure you have a matching pair?
Answer - Three. If you take two, you may have a matching pair, but you may have a blue and a black. The third sock has to be either blue or black, so with three socks you are sure of a pair.
Common Wrong Answer - 11. Some people think they have to make sure and get one sock of each color, but a pair is two of the same color.
Nineteen. How many members of each animal did Moses take on the ark?
Answer - None. It was Noah who took the animals on the ark. Moses was the one who led the children of Israel out of Egypt.
Common Wrong Answer - Two, not listening to the question because of programming and conditioning.
Twenty. If a chicken and a half can lay an egg and a half in a day and a half, then how many eggs can nine chickens lay in nine days?
Answer - 54. Ok, here's the math. If 1 1/2 chickens can lay 1 1/2 eggs in 1 1/2 days, then 3 chickens can lay 3 eggs in 1 1/2 days, and 9 chickens would lay 9 eggs in 1 1/2 days.
If you double or triple the number of chickens, you also double or triple the number of eggs in the same time period. So 9 chickens would lay 9 eggs every day and a half (or six eggs every day). There are six "day and a half" periods in nine days, and six times nine is 54 eggs.
Common Wrong Answer - 9, thinking the ratio would hold even.
There you have it. Twenty questions for you, showing you how easy it is to be programmed and brainwashed. If you would like to learn to use your mind power to create your own reality, rather than be programmed by those around you, see the resources below.

Eight. A clerk in the
I assumed this was a double-bluff, as the question doesn't say the clerk works in the shop - could have just stopped in for a t-bone. As for what a regular non-butchering clerk would weigh, I don't know.
The white of an egg is
The white of an egg is called the Albumen...not "egg white".
Twelve. If you set a round
Twelve. If you set a round container in the sun containing ten cups of water, and 10 percent of the water evaporates each day, how many days will it be until the water is gone?
Common Wrong Answer - Ten. If ten percent of the original amount evaporated each day, this would be true, but that's not what the question asks.
WRONG! This question is asked exactly like you said it wasn't. 10% evaporates each day and in 10 days it will be gone. Using logic this question as you meant it to be is lame.
You're not using logic then,
You're not using logic then, Dave. If ten percent evaporates each day, it becomes an infinite amount that theoretically never ends. I initially guessed 12, but it was only because I was lazy and didn't want to bother to figure it out; AND I forgot about the infinity the numbers. But there is a name for it that I should remember but can't at this moment about such an infinite reduction. But the question is asked exactly like he said it was, no matter how you might feel about it. For example, the second day, the water level is at 90%. 10% of 9 cups of water is 8.1 cups for the following day. 10% of 8.1 is 7.29 cups etc...After 10 days at 10% evaporation, there is still 3.486784401 cups of water left in the glass.
The problem is you don't want to be wrong, so you want the test to be lame and stupid and not you. Sucks to be human, eh?
Yeah but they said if 10%
Yeah but they said if 10% evaporates each day. They didn't specify that 10% of the total amount from the previous day is evaporated each day. It could've gone either way.
Actually, since the amount
Actually, since the amount of water can be quantified in terms of molecules, it'll just take a really long time to evaporate.
After about 560 days (that's pretty rough, just using 18g/mol, 1 cup = 250mL therefore 250g) there would be two molecules of water left, after which point one would evaporate, and then the other. Assuming of course that the sun has enough energy to heat up a single molecule of water.
Yes, but do you really want
Yes, but do you really want to eat something called 'albumin?' It sounds like an ingredient in deodorant! ;)
Egg white is another name
Egg white is another name for albumen boy.
Thus, it wudnt be wrong to address it with either of them.

Eighteen. It's dark in your room and you need to grab some clothes. You know you have ten blue socks and ten black socks in your drawer. What is the fewest number of socks you need to take to make absolutely sure you have a matching pair?
Answer - Three. If you take two, you may have a matching pair, but you may have a blue and a black. The third sock has to be either blue or black, so with three socks you are sure of a pair.
Alternate answers:
I believe the name of the
I believe the name of the percent thing you were talking about is called Exponential Decay. Where a certain percent of an amount of something is taken away. It holds for things such as radioactive waste where the waste has a half life. Therefore 50% is left remaining after its half life has come up. It continues until a few molecules are left. At which point I have no idea what happens.
Is it really brainwashing if
Is it really brainwashing if you're clearly going out of your way to mislead us? Case in point, I could ask you what 5+5 was and you'd say 10, then I could proceed to accuse you of being brainwashed into assuming I was asking the question in base 10. And if it is brainwashing, then is brainwashing really such a bad thing? Or are you using words deliberately affiliated with negativity just to shock? I don't know, but I don't think the questions really reflect a culture of evil mind manipulation.
