Solution:

13 numbers

Explanation:
Since we are looking to find odd reminder which implies that the remainder will be either 1 or 3
Therefore number must follow below two conditions:
A) We can list number 5n + 1 or 5n + 3. (where n = 0,1,2,3.....)
B) The number must end in 1 or 3.

List of such numbers less than 100 are:
1, 3, 11, 13, 21, 23, 31, 33, 41, 43, 51, 53, 61, 63, 71, 73, 81, 83, 91, 93

Let's remove the nonprime ones which are 1, 21, 33, 51, 63, 81 and 91

So, I will be left with 13 numbers which fit the bill.
3, 11, 13, 23, 31, 41, 43, 53, 61, 71, 73, 83 and 93

The teacher will use a simple trick to form a perfect impression. He will ask all his students to raise their hands on each of the question that is asked. But the only catch will be that those who knows the answer correctly will raise their right hand and others will raise their left hand.

In this way, the principal will see all the hands being raised for each question even though all won't be knowing the correct answer. The teacher will ask only those who know the answer and they will always be correct. So the principal will be impressed to full extent.

Solution:

10

Explanation:
Equation 1 + 9 + 11 = 1 can be derived from
One (o) + nine (n) + eleven (e) = one => 1

Similarly for equation,
12 + 11 + 9
Twelve (t) + eleven (e) + nine (n) => ten (10)

Solution:

8/(1−1/5)
