  1. Question 01 · Wordplay · Easier · Pick one

    Which word is an anagram of EARTH?

    • Tread
    • Heath
    • Other
    • Heart✓ Correct answer

    HEART uses exactly the letters E, A, R, T and H. Heath and Other each have an extra or missing letter — always check letter counts.

  2. Question 02 · Visual · Easier · Pick one

    You face north, turn 90° to your left, then turn 180°. Which way are you facing?

    • North
    • East✓ Correct answer
    • West
    • South

    A left turn from north faces west; a half turn from west faces east. A 180° turn always points you the opposite way, whichever direction you started from.

  3. Question 03 · Puzzle · Medium · This or that

    A sheet of paper is 0.1 mm thick. Fold it in half 7 times. Is the folded stack thicker or thinner than 1 cm?

    • Thicker✓ Correct answer
    • Thinner

    Each fold doubles it: 2⁷ = 128 layers × 0.1 mm = 12.8 mm.

  4. Question 04 · Logic · Medium · Put in order

    Four people live on floors 1–4, one per floor. Pia lives above Quinn. Rex lives directly below Sam. Quinn is not on floor 1. Order them from the bottom floor up.

    Correct order

    1. Rex
    2. Sam
    3. Quinn
    4. Pia

    Quinn can't be on floor 1, and Pia must be above Quinn. If Quinn were on 2, the floors left for Rex and Sam would never be next to each other. So Quinn is on 3, Pia on 4, and Rex and Sam take 1 and 2.

    The Moon is about 384,000 km away and Earth is about 12,700 km across: about 30 Earths.
