1.Absolutely! They may not celebrate it, but there is a July 4 on their calendar.
2.You have two apples, because that's what you took.
3.Everyone has the same number of birthdays-one per year.
4.All but 11 died, so 11 must be left.
5.The planet Earth; it's right under our feet.
6.Every month has(at least) 28 days.
7.A quarter and a dime. We had said that one of the coins wasn't a quarter, and the dime was the one.
8.This is a question everyone gets right, because you can use either one of these answers:
Half of 2 is 1, plus 2 equals 3.
2+2=4; half of 4 is 2.
