67. 2*2*2*2*2*3*3*3*3*3
68. Well, I know 6! = 720, so 6! x 7 = 5040
(I knew 7! off by heart, though)

Re: 10 second questions
Devante`,
If you meant the prime factors are 2 and 3, you're right.
Your answer isn't clear.
However, for #68, your answer is perfectly correct.
Well done

Re: 10 second questions
Sorry for the unclear answer, I forgot to extend on my answer. In a test, I would've lost a mark for that. :\
Yep, that's what I meant.

Re: 10 second questions
69. 2.20462262 pounds is a kilogram.
70. AU stands for Astronomical Unit. 1 AU = 149598000 kilometers.

Re: 10 second questions
Wow... they estimated the distance to the sun with a margin of error of 30 metres!?!
o_o
Doesn't the distance change alot due to gravity?

Re: 10 second questions
Indeed it does, because our orbit around the sun is slightly elliptical. But their definition of the AU is something like "the radius of an orbit around the sun that would take exactly one year for a complete revolution".
Which is kind of a technical way of saying that it's our average distance from the sun.
Why did the vector cross the road?
It wanted to be normal.

Re: 10 second questions
71. π/1800
I have no idea about the others, but I'll guess that there are ~30 primes from 1 to 100 and ~250 from 1 to 1000.

Re: 10 second questions
71) ((pi)/1800)
72) Approximately 746 watts (actually about 745.7) to every horsepower (hp).
73) Originally defined as one one-hundredth of the difference between the freezing and boiling temperatures of water under an atmospheric pressure that balances a 760-mm (29.92-inch) column of mercury. Now defined as the fraction 1/273.16 of the thermodynamic temperature of the triple point of water.
74) 25 primes from 1 to 100
75) 168 primes from 1 to 100

Re: 10 second questions
78. It might be a trick question...maybe 12?
79. 1.41 x 20 = 28.2
80. I think 30 zeros.

Re: 10 second questions
79. 24
81. (5-2)*180/5 = 108
82. 501*250 = 125250 (sorry took longer than 10 seconds on this one 
)

501x250 = (501x1000)/4 = 125250

Re: 10 second questions
Depending on where you are, the answer to 80. could also be 54 zeroes.
85. 500/log 2, rounded up.
