Solution:

developers=2, testers=5 and content-writters=13

Explanation:
Let the number of developers, testers, and content-writers are denoted by d, t, and c respectively.

From the given information we can write the following 2 equations;
d + t + c = 20 . . . . . . (1)
3d + 1.5t + 0.5c = 20 . . . . . (2)

Multiplying equation (2) by 2 we get;
6d + 3t + c = 40 . . . . . (2)

equation3 - equation 1
5d + 2t = 20

The unique solution with whole numbers is d = 2 & t = 5

Therefore from equation(1) we can find;
c = 13

developers=2, testers=5 and content-writters=13.

In the same manner the second sentence 'The winner of…..' will give form 'TWO' and the third sentence 'The Hardest Riddle Ever Event.' Will form THREE.

Thus the final sentence must form FOUR. There is only one candidate who can suffice with the first two letter and he is Fred Odea. The final sentence of the mastermind must be, 'Fred Odea: Ultimate Riddler!'

Solution:

Anybody will prefer the shop in the eastern market for sure. There are two reasons for it:
Firstly, since there are only two barbers in the town, the one running the shop in eastern market must have gotten his hair done by the one running the shop in the northern market and vice versa. Thus, if the barber in the eastern market has a shabby haircut, it must be due to the incompatibility.
Secondly, the neat and clean shop can be due to the scarcity of customers as well. While the untidy place refers to the fact that so many customers get their hair done in that shop.

Thus any one will opt for the barber shop in the eastern market.
