Bubble, you are correct for #3 and Marilyne, you are correct for #13. I will answer #4 and thus end this quiz.

While I thank everyone who participated, I want to remind everyone that Bubble or I am not the only ones allowed to post a quiz or game. There are many topics, from art to music to quotes to social events to proverbs, or a word puzzle. The field is wide open, take a chance, and show your stuff!

#4, What is the song "What's the frequency, Kenneth?" about?  It was an album song by the group REM about a true story. It involved newscaster Dan Rather being attacked by a delusional stranger.

Thank you Angel, that was instructive.

patricia19

Thank you Bubble. Hopefully, someone other than you or I will attempt a quiz on their own. Someone used to do music quizzes here besides Don, and there are so many subjects and styles available.

Amy

Yes, thank you Patricia ,that was fun.

Solution for the 3 questions

For #2:
Each shoe is 5

single burger is 2

One shoe 5
one boy 5  +2shoes on the boy 10
plus two burgers in hand  4
 24 X 2 = 48
