Congrats to n0wae on the FTF!


Solve this easy puzzle and find the cache. You will be looking for a 35mm film canister hidden in an easy to find spot. This cache draws inspiration from one I did a while back called EASY PUZZLE(GC1A0RK) Hat tip to Lord Mike, go and read his cache page first!
And now onto EASY PUZZLE II.
To quote Lord Mike: "It seems that this area has been over run with puzzle caches. Some are solvable without a MIT degree, but many are not. This puzzle cache is for everyone who doesn’t want to spend day upon day working on solving the most complicated, enigmatic puzzle just to go out and find a micro under a light skirt and sign the log proving to everyone that they are a smarty pants. This cache may still be a micro under a light skirt, but at least you won’t have to get an advanced degree in physics to figure it out..."

This should just take some simple arithmetic to figure out.

The cache is located at:

N 40 AB.CDE W 104 FG.(H+7)I(J-1)

Solve for A through J by answering the following questions:
A: How many cubic feet of dirt are in a hole measuring 1 foot by 1 foot by 1 foot?
B: If there are 7 apples on the ground and you pick up 3 of them, how many apples are there?
C: If it takes exactly 8 minutes to hard boil a duck egg, how many minutes would it take to hard boil 4 duck eggs?
D: How many letter "F"s and "f"s in the following sentence? "Frank Fellows was one of the first cachers to find it out of ten finders Tuesday."
E: A farmer has 10 pigs, but all of them but 3 die in a horrible blizzard, how many pigs are still alive?
F: Divide 2 by half and add 1.
G: A doctor gives you 4 pills and tells you to take one every 2 hours, how many hours will the pills last?
H: A ladder is hanging over the side of a fishing boat. The bottom rung is just above the surface of the water and the rungs are 12 inches apart. The tide is rising at 12 inches an hour, how many rungs will be submerged exactly 2 hours from now?
I: You are currently running 3rd in a race and overtake the runner in 2nd place, what place are you now?
J: How many points are on a 5 pointed star?

 Hints

Again, to quote Lord Mike: "The cache is under the lamp skirt at the light pole at the solved coordinates. Once you use the GPS to find the correct light pole, you then need to get out of your vehicle, discreetly lift up the lamp skirt, retrieve the cache, sign the log (the thing made of paper inside the cache container), discreetly replace the cache and lamp skirt as you found them, get back in your vehicle, and drive to the next cache on your list."

Trickery abounds in the questions, but we were able to finally settle on the correct solutions. We had to make it official by signing the log and earning the smiley. Thanks!

Day 6 of a 9 day road trip with my old caching buddy from Texas, Trea to travel and cache Colorado,Utah,Idaho and Wyoming. Today we are grabbing as many earth caches, virtual caches, webcams and mystery caches we can fit into daylight in and around the Salt Lake City Utah area! Thanks The Cooker for placing this cache for us to hunt. We will post pictures and send answers as signal allows.
