    If there are 6 oranges and you take away 4, how many do you have?

    • Six.

    • None of the above.

    Correct Answer
    A. The four you took.

    A little boy kicked a boy that went 2 feet, just to come back to him. Explain why. - ProProfs

    A little boy kicked a boy that went 2 feet, just to come back to him. Explain why.

    • It's impossible

    • He must have kicked it upwards, and gravity pulled it right down.

    • Gravity

    • It's because the little boy has a magnetic field around him.

    Correct Answer
    A. He must have kicked it upwards, and gravity pulled it right down.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is that the little boy must have kicked the ball upwards, and gravity pulled it right back down. This explanation is based on the concept of gravity, which is the force that pulls objects towards the center of the Earth. When the boy kicks the ball upwards, it gains some initial velocity. However, due to the force of gravity, the ball eventually slows down and starts moving back towards the ground. Therefore, it comes back to the boy after traveling a certain distance.

    How can you drop a raw egg on hard floor without cracking it? - ProProfs

    How can you drop a raw egg on hard floor without cracking it?

    • The egg won't crack the concrete floor.

    • The egg is from the prehistoric era.

    • The egg is hard candy

    • The egg is made out of concrete itself, so it won't crack the floor.

    Correct Answer
    A. The egg won't crack the concrete floor.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is that the egg won't crack the concrete floor. This is because concrete is a hard and solid surface, which can withstand the impact of the egg without breaking. Unlike a softer surface, such as a wooden floor or carpet, the concrete floor provides enough support to prevent the egg from cracking upon impact.

    Is it legal for a man to marry his widow's sister? - ProProfs

    Is it legal for a man to marry his widow's sister?

    • It would be difficult since he is dead.

    • Under common law it is not legal.

    • It is possible.

    • It is possible and the wealth stays in the family.

    Correct Answer
    A. It would be difficult since he is dead.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "It would be difficult since he is dead." This answer is correct because the question is asking if it is legal for a man to marry his widow's sister. However, since the man is already dead, it is not possible for him to marry anyone. Therefore, it would be difficult for him to marry his widow's sister.

    What goes up and down, but still remains in the same place? - ProProfs

    What goes up and down, but still remains in the same place?

    • Traffic lights

    • Stairs

    • The lift

    • A ladder

    Correct Answer
    A. Stairs
    Explanation
    Stairs go up and down as people walk on them, but they remain in the same place as a fixed structure within a building. Unlike traffic lights, which change position to control traffic flow, stairs are stationary and provide a means of vertical movement within a building. Similarly, a lift or elevator may move up and down, but it is not fixed in one place like stairs. A ladder can be moved and placed in different locations, so it does not fit the description of remaining in the same place.

    How can a young woman get eight hours of sleep? - ProProfs

    How can a young woman get eight hours of sleep?

    • By simply sleeping.

    • By sleeping at night time.

    • By eating less sugar.

    • By drinking less coffee.

    Correct Answer
    A. By sleeping at night time.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "By sleeping at night time." This answer is correct because it suggests that the young woman can get eight hours of sleep by following a regular sleep schedule and sleeping during the night when it is typically considered the optimal time for rest and rejuvenation. Sleeping at night time allows for a more consistent and uninterrupted sleep, which can contribute to better overall sleep quality and duration.

    Gwendoline can read her brother's graffiti, but then she stops seeing it after a while. Why? - ProProfs

    Gwendoline can read her brother's graffiti, but then she stops seeing it after a while. Why?

    • Because it is written with a fluorescent pen.

    • Because at night time you can't really read anything.

    • Because he has written it somewhere, where there's no lighting at night.

    • Because of the weather.

    Correct Answer
    A. Because he has written it somewhere, where there's no lighting at night.
    Explanation
    The reason Gwendoline stops seeing her brother's graffiti after a while is because he has written it somewhere without any lighting at night. This means that when it gets dark, there is no light to illuminate the graffiti, making it impossible for Gwendoline to see it.

    If it takes 10 men to build a wall, how many hours would it take five to build it? - ProProfs

    • It would take no time at all to build it.

    • It would take them twice as much to build it.

    • No time at all.

    • No time at all if they 2 times stronger than the others.

    Correct Answer
    A. It would take no time at all to build it.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "It would take no time at all to build it." This is because the statement implies that the wall has already been built by the 10 men. Therefore, the five men would not need any additional time to build it.
