    For question 2, I got this from Wiki: 4,105,106 (2009), but that's not an option

    Answer: 9.2 million.

    I entered but when clicking on the submit button, the screen freshed without saying the entry had been received so be careful as clicking the button again may invalidate your 'one entry per household'
