3. 2,000 P. in a T. = 2000 pounds in a tonne
12. 10 D. in a R. of Q. = 10 dimes in a roll of Quarters

Just thought I'd add,
how are us Aussies supposed to know that question 12. 10 D in a R of Q is 10 dollars in a roll of quarters?

I think this quiz must've been written by an American !!

I will go over some of the others I haven't got and try to look at them from an American point of view, it might help.

Thanks again franny2. Helen ;D

4. 56 S. of the D. of I. = 56 Signatures of the Declaration of Independance

6. 435 M. of the H. of R. = 435 members of the House of Representatives

These are tough - it's really too late for this kind of thing . . . still thinking . . .

[franny2]

Written by an American . . . you think? ;D

[aussiefan]

Hey penny74,

Thanks for getting in on the quiz action.

13 O. C. ?? Is your guess right do you think?

If so that means I have all the answers, I can finally get some sleep now!

How was an Aussie like me supposed to get 31 ice cream flavours at Baskin Robbins when we don't even get that brand here in Oz

Thanks again for your help!!

Helen.

[penny74]

You're welcome! It was fun. The 13 original colonies is a guess. I can't think of what else it would be, though.
