The five questions everyone played that day, in the order they were asked, with the correct answers and why they are right.

1. Question 01 · Wordplay · Easier · Pick one

   Which of these spellings is correct?

   • Definately
   • Definitely✓ Correct answer
   • Definitly
   • Defenitely

   Definitely contains the word “finite”: de-FINITE-ly. Spotting a smaller, familiar word inside a long one is a reliable way to remember its spelling.

2. Question 02 · Memory · Easier · Pick one

   Shown for 3 seconds, then hidden:

   T 4 M 9 K

   How many letters were shown?

   • 2
   • 3✓ Correct answer
   • 4
   • 5

   The items were T, 4, M, 9, K: three letters and two numbers. Grouping as you look (“letter, number, letter…”) makes mixed lists easy to count.

3. Question 03 · Prediction · Medium · Put in order

   Order these from most likely to least likely.

   Correct order

   1. Flipping heads with one coin
   2. Drawing a heart from a full deck
   3. Rolling a 6 with one die
   4. Rolling two 6s with two dice

   1 in 2, then 1 in 4, then 1 in 6, then 1 in 36. Each extra thing that must go right shrinks the chance fast.

4. Question 04 · Prediction · Medium · Pick a point on a scale

   You roll a fair six-sided die. What is the chance of a number greater than 4?

   • 1 in 6
   • 1 in 3✓ Correct answer
   • 1 in 2
   • 2 in 3

   Only 5 and 6 are greater than 4: 2 of 6 faces, or 1/3. Watch for “greater than” versus “at least” — they differ by one outcome.

5. Question 05 · Estimation · Harder · Put in order

   Order these countries from most to fewest people.

   Correct order

   1. Indonesia
   2. Brazil
   3. Japan
   4. Germany

   Indonesia has about 280 million people, Brazil about 210 million, Japan about 124 million and Germany about 84 million.
