How many inventions did Fred and George have?

12

Fred and George Weasley are known for their trouble-making and general "solemnly swearing they are up to no good". Their antics/adventures give something to smile about and show us not all wizards are as serious as Professor McGonagall and Hermione. This gives them a reputation of being less intelligent and indeed they only achieved three OWLs.

However, we also see the twins have quite a brilliant side! Being able to open and successfully run a shop in Diagon Alley without having completed their Hogwarts education is no easy take (IMO, anyway). Their creations helped students get out of class, our heroes out of tight spot, and even stop our enemies execute an evil plot.

Ginny may have said it best:

"We’ve been hearing explosions out of their room for ages, but we never thought they were actually making things," said Ginny. "We thought they just liked the noise."
