I took the test, but only got 65%. Funny how we didn't study the Four Corners or US Representives' length of terms in Canadian grade school ...

I can't believe how dumb some of the guests are! I watched it a couple of times and then gave up - I mean really!

i got 80%. but i disagree with some of their 'correct' answers.

[font=Arial, Helvetica]8. What is the lowest prime number?

Wrong -- Answer: 2

A. 0
B. 1
C. 2
D. 3
E. 5
definition of a prime number: a number divisible only by itself or 1. hey, if the number is one, shouldn't that still count? that's what i answered...
also checked on this, & here's the official definition:
[/font]a prime number (or a prime) is a natural number that has exactly two (distinct) natural number divisors, which are 1 and the prime number itself.

[font=Arial, Helvetica]one doesn't count because it doesn't have 2 distinct divisors...
18. Inca civilizations were concentrated on what continent?

Wrong -- Answer: South America

A. South America
B. Africa
C. North America
D. Asia
E. Europe

i thought the Inca were in central america, which i consider part of north america vs. south america...
nope, i checked - they were in Peru, which is definitely south america, my bad.

[/font] i'd like to go on that show... i think i'd do well. 'course, it helps being a primary school teacher...

OK - I didn't see Central America on there, so answered South America, because I figured they were including it in that~
