White House trivia questions, and five more rounds
The house round comes mostly from the White House's own page: 132 rooms, 35 bathrooms, 570 gallons of paint, and the fire the British set in the War of 1812. The office in the Constitution quotes the National Archives' transcription, from the oath to the 25th Amendment.

Questions and answers
How many rooms are in the White House?
132, with 35 bathrooms on 6 levels, by the White House's own count. It also lists 412 doors, 147 windows, 28 fireplaces, 8 staircases and 3 elevators.
How old do you have to be to be president?
Thirty-five. Article II of the Constitution also requires a natural born citizen who has been fourteen years a resident within the United States.
Why are living presidents left out?
So that no answer goes out of date and no question turns on current politics. Every president who is an answer has died; parties, rankings and anything about the White House after 2000 are left out too.
