Questions with numerical answers

Ten real numerical trivia questions with their verified values — the kind of facts that power More or Less, our fast trivia game about numbers.

The best trivia questions have a number for an answer. A number can be checked, argued over, and turned into a bet — which is exactly what More or Less does: every round shows you a claim with a believable but incorrect number, and you have to decide whether the real answer is more or less before the clock runs out.

Below are ten questions with numerical answers from the game’s topics, each with its real value. Try calling each one before you read the answer — that is the whole game.

Values are kept to the accuracy the game serves; a few of these change with better measurement, which is why every curated fact is verified before it is shown to players.

Why the wrong number matters

In More or Less, you never type an answer. The question arrives with a number already filled in — one that sounds plausible. A cheetah claim might show 40 mph. If the real answer is higher, you press MORE; if it is lower, you press LESS. That single decision, made against a ticking clock, is what makes numerical trivia fast to play and hard to put down.

Where the questions come from

Curated rounds are drawn from a verified fact bank — each claim checked, each number sourced, before it reaches a player. Custom topics are generated on demand and checked in the same way, so a round about your favourite subject plays by the same rules as one about cheetahs.
