Seven. It would have been eight if I had taken the first pill right away instead waiting 1/2 hour.

6, but I don't agree with #6. 30 ÷ by.1/2 is not 60.... common core at its finest. but I get the trick...

Since we all have calculators handy: divide 30 by .5, and see what pops up.

Well.
My wife tried explaining it to me, but I just can't figure out how you can divide something, and get a higher #?
Next you'll be telling me 30 x 2 = 15.....

No...
But I while mention that thirty times one-half, is fifteen...
...And thirty divided by one-half, is still sixty!

You're looking at it wrong.
If you asked a cashier to give you change for 30 One Dollar Bills in 50 cent pieces, you would be dividing each dollar by 1/2. You would end up with 60, 50 cent pieces in the deal. If the cashier gave you 15, 50 cent pieces for your $30.00 you'd be pretty upset.
I got all 11 right. It's simply a matter of perspective and reading the questions literally instead of interpreting them according to the common language we use every day.
But I do have an issue with the ark question Actually, Noah brought 7 of each sex of the 'Clean' animals (those used in sacrifice) onto the ark. So they got 1 wrong with the inaccurate question. However, the answer would still be the same.

30 divided by 1/2 = 30 divided by .5 = 60
