Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Last horizontal row on a Battleship game board.

Answer: J

The game board for "Battleship", made by Hasbro, has a ten-by-ten board marked by letters on the y-axis and numbers on the x-axis. The goal is to locate your opponent's ships by calling out letter-digit combos and finding where they are to sink five different-sized ships. Because of this grid, J-- the tenth letter of the alphabet-- refers to the bottom row; the bottom-right corner would be J-10.
Weirdly, the game spawned a 2012 film by the same name. It had very little to do with the original game.
2. Highest odd number in a game of Sudoku.

Answer: 9

A Sudoku game is a square separated into nine sections of nine sections (so it's a square split into 81 smaller squares), and each of those small squares needs to contain a number between 1 and 9. In addition, groupings of nine squares (forming squares themselves) have to contain those numbers. And every column and row needs to contain those numbers. No repeats.

It's complicated. But just imagine a crossword puzzle with numbers and only one proper solution. When the board is filled up there should be no repeats regardless of how you get to the solution.
3. 1

Answer: Used in binary.

There are only two digits used in binary-- 1 and 0-- so your answer shouldn't be close to any of the other possible matches. This base-2 system can go on indefinitely by tacking further numbers on to the end of your sequence. 0 is 0, 1 is 1, but 10 would be 2, 011 would be 3 since the '1' as the second digit is equal to 2 and the '1' in the third digit is equal to 1.

By the time you get to '100', your binary number is 01100100. Binary numbers are consistently used in computing and electronics.
4. X

Answer: Cartesian horizontal axis.

The Cartesian coordinate system, used in math, refers to the use of an axis on which points can be determined and plotted to track data of some sort. This means that an axis of intersecting and perpendicular lines is required to create a consistent scale-- the horizontal axis is typically the x-axis and the vertical axis is typically the y-axis, and these are used to give coordinates in the form (x, y). For a third dimension, one would add a z-axis into the mix, giving a third coordinate in the form (x, y, z).
5. Said differently between Canada and the U.S.

Answer: Z

The letter Z is a unique one in the English language since it's one of the only disparities when considering UK (and Australian and Canadian) and U.S. pronunciations. In the U.S., the letter is referred to by the sound 'zee' while in British English countries, the letter is referred to by 'zed'.

It doesn't have much of an effect when used in words, but when used in the English alphabet song, the American version tends to rhyme.
6. V

Answer: A Roman numeral.

While there are certainly other match options that would also fit this Roman Numeral option, hopefully you narrowed it down to the letter V, the Roman numeral for the number 5. Considering other letters used for numerals, you would include:

I - 1
V- 5
X - 10
L - 50
C - 100
D - 500
M - 1,000

There was no Roman numeral for zero.
7. 5

Answer: Classic Chanel number.

Chanel No. 5, weirdly, was Coco Chanel's first perfume though, likely, the most iconic in her line, originally being used to reflect a certain elegance with its provocative fragrance. The perfume has been frequently promoted by Hollywood's most glamorous stars over the decades and even the bottle for the product has gone down as one of the most well-known in the industry for its simple design and ubiquity. Coco Chanel created seven different perfumes in her day.
8. The SI unit for inductance.

Answer: H

The 'Henry', as it's called, is a unit used when referring to the electromagnetic induction of a circuit. Induction is a term used to describe the movement of electromagnetic forces in a conductor and its surrounding fields. The unit is named after the first Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, Joseph Henry, who ended up discovering inductance shortly after his, perhaps, more-accomplished contemporary Michael Faraday.

The farad (F) is named after Faraday, referring to electrical capacitance.
9. 3

Answer: Closest whole number to pi.

I hate to throw another math number at you, but this one seemed to be a good 'approximation' question. Pi is the constant referring to the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. It's not equal to 3; it's an irrational number which begins as 3.1415...
Pi is used in calculating the circumference of a circle and has been used as far back as ancient times. It's persisted as a commonly-known constant, even by people who aren't particularly good at math. An international Pi Day is held on March 14 (3/14) annually.
10. Value, in degrees closest to the latitude of Ecuador.

Answer: 0

Latitude refers to the horizontal lines in degrees around the globe, and it would be presumed that the Equator, the longest line around the circumference of the Earth, is at zero degrees. There are only a few countries on the planet that the Equator passes through, and Ecuador, named after the Equator, is one of them.

The Equator also passes through Colombia, Brazil, Sao Tome & Principe, Gabon, Congo, The Democratic Republic of the Congo, Uganda, Kenya, Somalia, Maldives, Indonesia and Kiribati.
