Solution:

If you take a look closely, you will acknowledge the fact that every symbol in the given figure is somehow associated with the surrounding one’s position. The upside-down spade is used to the left of a right-side-up heart every time.

Solution:

He should draw any chit of paper and before unfolding it, he must eat and swallow the chit. In this manner, to determine the judgment of the god, they will have to look at the other chit which will have 'Guilty' written over it. Thus everyone will believe that the chit which he ate had innocent written over it and thus they will believe that he is innocent.

Solution:

The first figure tells you where you have to make the cut in the paper. Now you have two pieces of paper. If you rotate the right piece to 180 degrees, you will get what is shown in the figure two. Now the hole is in the center of the paper.

Solution:

QHJRPBWF

CYLINDER = UHGQGJWA
Reverse the letters of CYLINDER
REDNILYC
Position increase in first four letters by 3.
REDN becomes UHGQ

Position decrease in last four letters by 2.
ILYC becomes GJWA.

Thus in the same manner
HYDROGEN = QHJRPBWF

Solution:

The 100th statement for sure is incorrect because it says that at least 100 of the statements are incorrect.

Suppose if that is correct, then 100 statements cannot be true.
This suggests that the 100th statement is incorrect and that the first statement is true.

Similarly 99 statements cannot be true because if they were true, then two statements would become correct i.e. the 1st and the 99th.
But the 99th statement says that at least 99 are incorrect.
This suggests that the 99th statement is incorrect and that 2ndone is true.

If we keep analyzing is the same way till the end, we will find out that only the first fifty statements are true and all the remaining ones are incorrect.

Solution:

10992

Explanation:
Each girl has seven bags with seven adult cats each.
Also, each adult cat has seven little cats.
Thus each girl has 49 adult cats and 343 little cats.

Hence, seven girls will have
343 adult cats and 2410 little cats.

If we calculate the number of legs now.
Girls = 7 * 2 = 14
Cats + Little cats = 2744 * 4 = 10976

Total legs = 10976 + 14 = 10990

Since I also walked in the room, there will be two more legs.
Now total legs = 10990 + 2 = 10992.

Solution:

Solution is below

Solution:

At every floor, the detective had to open the window himself. If the man had committed suicide, then at least one of the windows must have been open. A person who is committing suicide won’t close the window behind him. Thus he knows that someone pushed him off the edge and closed the window afterwards.

Solution:

The Pink servant is the truthful one.

In order to prove the same, let us take all of them one by one assuming that the selected one is telling the truth. This is because all of them are disagreeing with each other which means that three servants are lying while one is telling the truth.

Assume that the Orange servant is the truthful one. Under this condition, the orange one is having either 6 or 8 legs. And each of the other octopus is lying will then have 7 legs. Under this condition, the total number of legs will be 6 + 7 + 7 + 7 = 27 legs or 8 + 7 + 7 + 7 = 29 legs. But the Orange servant said that they have 28 legs all together. Thus he is lying.

Now if we simply follow the same logic with all other servants as well, we will come up to the conclusion that only the Pink servant is truthful.

Solution:

29 rungs.
Since he is standing on the middle rung in the beginning,
Let the middle rung be x
He climbs 6 rungs first and then climbs down rungs and again climbs 18 rungs to reach the top.
Thus the position is now,
X+6-10+18 = x + 14.
This position is on the top rung.
Thus the ladder has 14 rungs above the middle rung and also it must be having 14 rungs down the middle point as well.
14+14+1 = 29.
Thus there are total 29 rungs in the ladder.

Solution:

They can neither be true nor be false. They contradict each other and these statements are known as paradox.

Solution:

Solution:

When the boats meet for the first time, they have sailed a combined distance that is equal to one length of the lake. When they meet the second time, they have sailed 3 lengths. The elapsed time and the distance for each is three times.

When they meet for the second time, the boat M has sailed 500 x 3 = 1500 yards. Now, this is 300 yards longer than the length of the lake, it must be 1200 yards wide.

The ration between the speed of boat M and boat N is equal to the ratio of the distance that they have sailed before they meet the first time.
