2% or 98% of Population?
Just follow these instructions, and answer the questions one at a time and as quickly as you can! Again, as quickly as you can but don't advance until you've done each of them .... really. Now, scroll down (but not too fast, you might miss something).



THINK of a number from 1 to 10



MULTIPLY that number by 9



If the number is a 2-digit number, ADD the digits together



Now SUBTRACT 5



DETERMINE which letter in the alphabet corresponds to the number you ended up with (example: 1=a, 2=b, 3=c,etc.)



THINK of a country that starts with that letter



REMEMBER the last letter of the name of that country



THINK of the name of an animal that starts with that letter



REMEMBER the last letter in the name of that animal




THINK of the name of a fruit that starts with that letter





Are you thinking of a Kangaroo in Denmark eating an Orange?

Isn't that FREAKY!! If not for you, you're among the 2% of the population whose minds are different enough to think of something else. However, 98% of people will answer with kangaroos in Denmark eating oranges when given this exercise.

The reason why this works so well is because of this

every number multiplied by nine will give you a two digit number whos digits ADD to nine

1x9 = 9  and 9+0 = 9

5x9 = 45 and 4+5 = 9

8x9 = 72 and 7+2 = 9

that means that theyve already tricked you into getting "d" for your letter because no matter which number you choose the answer will be the same.

haha wow. thats actually pretty cool.
although, no matter what you choose you will end up with 4 as your number. because 9 times anything 1-10 always adds up to 9.
9x1=9
9x2=18
9x3=27
9x4=36
9x5=45
9x6=54
9x7=63
9x8=72
9x9=81
9x10=90

countries that start with d:
denmark
dubai
most people think of denmark

animals with k:
kangaroo
koala
most people think of these 2, i know there are plenty more.

and then it comes down to apple or orange.

youre retarded, do math better. every country should start with a D (9-5 = 4 = D for any number you put in). regardless, i got djibouti, ibex, and couldnt think of a fruit. you suck OP.
