I asked 50 people one question at a bus stop in Denver and only 6 got it right
Last Saturday I stood at a busy stop on 16th Street in Denver with a clipboard and asked 50 strangers one simple thing: how many minutes are in a week. Just 6 of them said 10,080. Most people said 168 (that's hours), and a few said 1,440 (that's minutes in a day). I picked that question after my cousin bet me $20 that most folks would nail it, and I lost that bet. It made me wonder what other stuff we all think we know but actually don't. What's a question you thought everyone could answer but it turned out almost nobody could?
