Solution:

There is only one way to do it. The old man must ask one of his son to divide the land in two parts and then ask the other one to pick up any land he want from the two. In this way, the first son will try to be fair and the second one won't mind as he will get to choose one first.

Solution:

Jack and Jill are the names of two clown fishes. Unfortunately the bowl they were living in fell on the floor and broke into pieces. Thus both of them died.

Solution:

If you remember the formulas, you will find out that the first option cannot exist.
Side A^2 + Side B^2 = Side C^2

Thus the only possible option here is the second one and of course, it will have a greater area then

Solution:

24

Explanation:
There are a total of 24 triangles in the given figure.

To make it easy to understand, we have put numbers on each distinct triangle. So let us start counting them now.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, (1+2), (1+2), (1+2+3), (1+2+3+4), (2+3), (2+3+4), (3+4), (5+6), (5+6+7+8), (7+8), (1+2+5+6), (3+4+7+8), (2+6+9), (3+7+10), (6+9), (7+10) and (6+7+9+10).

Solution:

The image that we have attached here is self-explanatory. You just have to move four matches and you can obtain this figure.

Solution:

Since every bacterium divides into two in two minutes and we know the fact that the dish was half filled with bacteria at 3 pm, after exactly 2 minutes, all will divide into two and will fill the petri dish. Thus, the petri dish will become full at 3:02 pm.

Solution:

4

Explanation:
Now if you go on calculating 2^300, you will lose so much time and it might not even be feasible to carry out so long of calculations. Thus we will make use of a trick here. We will calculate the remainder of each power of 2 till we come across a pattern.

2^1 divided by 4 leaves the remainder 2.
2^2 divided by 4 leaves the remainder 0.
2^3 divided by 4 leaves the remainder 0.
2^4 divided by 4 leaves the remainder 0.

You can see that all the following powers of two will be divisible by 4. Therefore the remainder when 2^300 is divided by 4 will be 0 only.

Solution:

This open figure will result in the cube given in the option C.

Solution:

First climb the first rope and carry the end of the second one with you. Now cut the first rope and flush with the ceiling, then swing down on the second. This time, climb up the second and cut that flush with the ceiling as well but only part way till it can withstand your weight. Now slowly climb down till you're just short of the bottom. Now tie a tiny loop at this portion and climb up some two feet. Then secure the loop about your feet and jump to the ground. With a three feet fall, you won't be hurt but the force will snap off the rope at top and you will have the whole rope with you.

Solution:

The missing tile will be 3.

Explanation:
0 + 0 = 0
1 + 2 = 3
0 + 2 + 2
1 + 4 = 5
3 + 1 = 4
6 + 1 = 7
3 + 3 = 6
6 + 3 = 9

If you see the patter, with each pair the total sum is increasing by three and then decreasing by 1. Therefore the missing tile will be 3.

Solution:

Now you must be aware of the fact that in general, the magnetic field is present only on the poles of the magnet. Thus keep any rod on a surface. Then hold the other rod in your hand and bring its tip close to the center of the rod that is lying down on the surface. If the rod comes close to the rod you are holding, then the one you are holding is a magnet. However, if the rod does not gets attracted towards your rod, then the one that is lying is the magnet.

Solution:

Since you can't identify which tablets are meant for which purpose, what you can do is take half of each tablet. In this manner, you will be able to get 1 of each tablet no matter what.

Solution:

The man had jumped from an aircraft and when he tried opening his parachute, he was unsuccessful. He hit the ground crushing all his bones and died on the spot. The unopened package found near his body is the parachute.

Solution:

Q

Explanation:
First Square:
6 + 4 + 4 = 14
N is the 14th letter.

Second Square:
4 + 1 + 7 = 12
L is the 12th letter.

Third Square:
5 + 6 + 10 = 21
U is the 21st letter.

Fourth Square:
14 + 2 + 1 = 17
Q is the 17th letter.

Solution:

This is a tricky question and you know that by looking at the answer image.

Solution:

Yes it is absolutely possible. Actually Tuesday is the name of his car.

Solution:

The barman noticed that the man was hiccupping badly while he ordered for his drink. Thus to give him a shock, he pulled out a gun and aimed for his head. This shock ultimately cured his hiccups.

Solution:

It is an open ground right? You can just throw the ball in air and it will be brought back to your hand automatically by the gravity.

Solution:

Did you concentrate on the point that it was a ping pong ball? Also that you have a water bottle with you. We never mentioned that it was empty. So what you will do is simply empty it in the narrow pipe and the ball will come up floating on the water. All the other things that were mentioned served just as distractions and if you were not able to find a way, they all worked quite well.

Solution:

None of the rungs will go underwater.
This is because as the tide is rising, the ship is also rising and with it the rope ladder is also rising. Thus none of the rungs will go underwater ever and it is not related with the distance between the rungs.
