ZFR: Not in. I did solve all the medium-expert myself (Medium 3 and Expert 1 I already heard before), but I can't answer a single easy question, other than perhaps make a guess at the sleeping hours and cups of coffee. Are you sure you got the difficulties right?
A simple Google search usually gives all the answers to the easy and medium questions. Just copy and paste the questions into <span class="bold">Google</span> and you'll be surprised! ;-)

Most of the questions are based on a book called "<span class="bold">Numberland: The World in Numbers</span>", and all the numbers have been double-checked on the Internet for their accuracies.

Easy question # 2: 1680

Desert Ashes

Thank you
Hard question # 1: 141 years
Games: Galaxy on Fire 2HD

Solution:

surface-to-surface mean distance is 1.49x10^11 meteres, as stated here: http://www.chegg.com/homework-help/questions-and-answers/average-distance-surface-earth-surface-sun-149-1011-m-much-time-minutes-take-light-leaving-q1557245

1.49x10^11 / 1000 m/km / 120km/h / 24 h/d / 365.25 d/y = 141.65

(edit: italics don't seem to be working for me. weird.)

NOTE: I was informed that this question has already been solved and could answer another question without the 4 hour waiting period.

_Slaugh_: Congratulations to the following winners:
Thank you very much, sir! I've been itching to play that one for quite a long time.

Cognrats to everyone!
Wow, that's alot of work. Just want to give you +1 for the interesting giveaway. And of course congrats to the winners ^_^
Not in, just wanted to say thanks for another interesting (and generous) giveaway~!
Thanks and congrats to all of the other winners!

On another note: Tallima you're wrong! :) When using calculators it's a good idea to round up only the final answer, i.e.:

1 Astronomical unit is the distance between the Earth and the Sun; 1 AU = 149 597 871 km (source: https://www.google.bg/#q=1+au)

149 597 871 / 120 = 1246648.925 hours (source: https://www.google.bg/#q=+149597871+%2F+120)

1246648.925 / 24 = 51943.7052083 days

51943.7052083 / 365 = 142.311521119 years (1/3 of a year is 12/3 = 4 months) so 142 years and 4 months, but

every 4 years we have a loop year that is 366 days (+1 day) and for roughly 142 years this is 142 / 4 = 36 days which roughly is a whole month and a week that we have to subtract from the final result:

142 years and 3 months
