(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So you may have seen a few weeks ago we got this new Redeem for vbux option and so im gonna be hosting this competition, and the winner of each "round" will earn Vbux Redeem codes.
I know this belongs in the "games" forum, but since there is prizes on offer Its not a "game". Also this is not a raffle as all you have to do is answer questions for prizes (vbux) and there is no money involved.

So This comp will consist of 5 rounds, each round will go live at a disclosed time (keep an eye on my post in this thread for the next set of questions Winky Winky).
Each set will have 5-10 questions to answer, and the first x amount of people to answer these questions correctly will earn a vbux redeem code.
You can enter in each set, but do let others have a chance.
To minimize the use of google, these questions will be general knowledge, and will be simple questions to ones that you need knowledge of NGU to answer, so its not all about how cleaver you are Awesome face.

To give everyone a fair chance the first set of questions will go live in roughly 10-15 minutes. and remember keep an eye out on this thread for the new set of questions that could go live at anytime without warning!

Still wrong

If the number is in parenthesis, you have to distribute the number and the variable to that number

Therefore 5x(3) = 20x because you add 5x to 15x
