Default A harder problem...one for GoT

Ran across this problem a couple of weeks ago, and found it quite challenging.

Question 1: What is the sum of all numerical answers in this quiz (including this one)?

Question 2: How many questions in this quiz have an answer of True?

Question 3: True or False - Question 1 has the highest numerical answer in this quiz.

Question 4: How many answers are the same as this one (including this one)?

Question 5: True or False - All numerical answers in this quiz are positive.

Question 6: What is the average of all numerical answers in this quiz (including this one)?

Question 7: True or False - The answer to question 4 is greater than the answer to question 2.

Question 8: What is the answer to question 1 divided by the answer to question 8?

Question 9: True or False - The answer to question 6 is equal to the difference between answers 2 and 4, minus the product of answers 8 and 4.

Question 10: What is the answer to this question?

I don't think I'll answer that just yet. If no one seems to be getting anywhere I'll throw out a few hints. However I will say as stated you should have enough information to answer the question without having to make any major assumptions.

No it's not. But #8 IS. This quiz is flawed. #8 has no solution.

Almost impossible but not quite. You're overlooking one case.

No infinity is not an answer to any question.
