Nine ABBA singles peaked at number one in the UK:
Waterloo (1974)
Mamma Mia (1975)
Fernando (1975)
Dancing Queen (1976)
Knowing Me, Knowing You (1977)
The Name of the Game (1977)
Take a Chance on Me (1978)
The Winner Takes it All (1980)
Super Trouper (1980)
There are those who argue that there was a tenth. "One of Us" reached #2 in 1981 but there was no chart published the following week due to a Christmas break. It did hit #1 on some regional charts though.
ABBA had 9 number one hits in the UK.
ABBA songs topped the UK charts 9 times.

I think is was Ring Ring.
It depends on what country you are talking about. They had, I think, 13 number one hits in the UK, but only 1 in America. Australia was absolutely ABBA crazy, maybe even surpassing their native Sweden. So every country had a different reaction to the ABBA craze.

Waterloo, 1974.
If you're thinking of Abba, as a single it reached No 2 in South Africa and No 33 in UK. But as a track on ABBAs Greatest Hits and ABBA The Movie it hit No 1 all over the world.
I think it was Waterloo in 1974.
Dancing Queen in 1976.
I think is was Ring Ring.
200 kiddy lands
