How many keys tall is the average Australian man?
That is, if you stacked up computer keys on top of each other lengthwise, how many keys would you need?
The first new player to comment on the website with the correct answer wins a free drink at their next iQ Trivia quiz.
My Laptop has 79 keys of various sizes, totaling about 230 cm, or 2.9 cm per average key.
If an average Australian is 180 cm tall, that gives 180/2.9 = 62 keys. If we only consider the “regular” keys with just letters or numbers as opposed to things like space bars , shift keys etc. it would be about 70 keys. If the average man is less than 180 cm the number would be proportionally less.
It turns out a standard key is about 1.9cm, so the average Australian man is about 93 keys tall.
