	The lack of 100% at the moment is that this quiz used to be only 30 problems, but there were too many 100% so I upped it to 34.

	Love how so many people skipped 38/57. That or it's one of the newly added ones.

	Simple concept, but fun for us math geeks. @enough: How many plays was this at when you upped the count?

	enough:	Aug 20th, 2010 at 23:57 GMT	3 points
	I'd say about 800.

	This was ridiculously more hard for me than I expected.

	6/8 of a(n Imperial) gallon of beer makes this a bit diccifult... erm, okward... I mean the brian isn't funkchuning properly... oh, stuff it, goodnight! ;-)

	This is really difficult without a numpad.

	I am definitely not good at fractions. OW! Guess I need to brush up on that.

	medsed:	Aug 21st, 2010 at 03:09 GMT	4 points
	I need a number pad to do this quickly...I am such a slow typist...LOL

	It's not hard, it's just not my native language, so to speak. I'm a word person.

	@jdmerkel: Some of them are trick questions, causing you to try to reduce them while the correct answer is to type the original fraction.

	Needs more time, in my opinion. Great quiz.

	@jdmerkel and Sporcla: There are prime numbers and fractions in their lowest terms simply to make things 'challenging' for people who don't use their brains.

	Need more time

	macro:	Feb 19th, 2011 at 00:17 GMT	2 points
	I agree with those who say more time is needed. Three minutes seems about right.

	Avman, you're an idiot, just start the quiz without looking ahead, and for 42/56 I kept trying 6/8 until I just decided to hit skip, at the end of the quiz when 3/4 showed up i was truly embarrassed

	@sandpit: What kept you so long?

	crummy101:	May 7th, 2011 at 01:03 GMT	-3 points
	its kinda boring

	Nordeck52:	Jul 22nd, 2011 at 00:22 GMT	1 point
	I agree with the others saying more time is needed. I love that there are trick questions to reduce like 10/19!

	johnnyquiz:	Aug 16th, 2011 at 00:26 GMT	1 point
	19 first try. needs more time

	apbadogs:	Aug 29th, 2011 at 22:26 GMT	-2 points
	NO WAY anyone got this in the allotted time.

	I hated Math in highschool I don't come to Sporcle to do it!

	uparoundtheben:	Aug 31st, 2011 at 21:03 GMT	2 points
	Fun quiz, finished with a reasonable amount of time, who looks at the questions before? Challenge by choice. I love how people complain about the 2 trick questions which were easy to spot. If there were more time, everyone would be able to do it and there wouldn't be any challenge, suck it up.

	gvigary:	Sep 29th, 2011 at 09:30 GMT	2 points
	I think the time is challenging but fair - finished with 3 seconds to spare - and I'm fine with the "trick" ones. Keeps your brain awake - and isn't that the point of Sporcle?

	For those having problems, it's easier to finish if you skip typing the slashes.
