You have four nines (9, 9, 9, 9). Using only these nines, arrange them to total 100. Each nine can only be used once.

[9 divided by 9 equals 1 + 99 = 100]

Divide 30 by half and add 10. What is the answer? (a little tricky)
[30 divided by .5 equals 60 + 10 = 70]

If the earth weighs six-trillion tons and you built a stone and mortar wall around the equator weighing one-trillion tons, what would be the weight of the earth and the wall?

[Well, the answer obviously isn't seven-trillion... I'll guess at six-trillion still... I dunno]
