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.

I think every question is impossible...eating dinner now, will look at it again later.

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

No infinity is not an answer to any question.
