It's time for a math question. Taken straight from the ACT. So Enjoy!

A rock group gets 30% of the money from sales of
their newest compact disc. That 30% is split equally
among the 5 group members. If the disc generates
$1,000,000 in sales, how much does one group
member receive?

A.) $ 30,000

B.) $ 50,000

C.) $ 60,000

D.) $200,000

E.) $300,000

[Xuca]

C) 60 000

[Largefry07]

Correct!

30% of 1,000,000 is 300,000.
300,000 divided by 5 = 60,000.

Which of these isn't rakija:
A) Sljivovica
B) Komovica
C) Pavlovica
D) Viljemovka
E) Orahovaca

[Elvain]

A) Sljivovica

I forgot what exactly is rakija, but I tip this one
it's funny that almost all slavic nations have this "drink" we call it slivovice or slivovica :lol:

[Xuca]

Well, Sljivovica is a rakija, so wrong.

Here's something from Wikipedia about rakija(if you aren't lazy, you can find the answer there):
The drink rakia or rakija (Bulgarian: ракия, Serbian: ракија) is hard liquor similar to brandy and vodka, made by distillation of fermented fruits that are popular throughout the Balkans. Its alcoholic contents is normally 40%, but in home-produced rakia it is higher, typically 50 to 60%. Prepečenica is a doubly distilled rakia, with alcoholic content sometimes more than 60%. Brlja (lit. mess) is a popular name for cheap low-quality rakia, which tastes horribly and is only useful for intoxicating on the budget.

Well, I don't like the rakia very much, as I prefer beer or wine, but greyana rakia is just the best thing you could drink in this cold winter! :cheers:
Btw C) Pavlovica! :go:

[Xuca]

Traveller is correct! :go:

That's just something I made up. :lol:

I guess Traveller posts the next question then?

[Traveller]

Ok, but since I can't think of a good (and historical :wink: ) question, here is one more stupid:

B. Girls (i.e. beautiful)
C. Yoghurt (production)
D. Warrior spirit
E. Nature (i.e. beautiful)
F. Folklore and history
G. Rose oil (production)
I. Shoes (production)

[LittleFreak]

Yeah, I knew it was too easy. Go on, Little Freak!

[LittleFreak]

Someone else can post a question, I don't know any good one right now.
