Solution:

All Digits [0-9] follow the following pattern: There is one occurrence of all digits in every 10 numbers Example. Digit-9 occurred one time between 10 and 19 in 9, between 20 and 29 in 29
However, for tens(91,92,93...99) and hundreds (900,901.... 999), the occurrence is much more. Since we have included 1000, Therefor 1 is the most occurred digit.
Note: Despite three '0s' in 1000, 0 is not most occurred digit as they don't have tens and hundreds like other digits.

Solution:

Let us assume,
the radius of the river is R.
the speed of beast is S.
the speed of duck is S/4.
Circumference = 2 * Pi * R.

Now, if duck swims R/4 distance from the center of the river and then begins to swim across the river in center implies both duck and beast can take the round trip in same time.
Explanation :
time by beast : 2 * Pi* R * S
time by duck : 2 * Pi* R/4 * S/4 => 2 * Pi* R * S


Now, the duck can move slowly inward toward the center of the river, and begin swimming around the center in a circle from this distance. It is now going around a very slightly smaller circle than it was a moment ago, and thus will be able to swim around this circle FASTER than the beast can run around the shore.

The duck can keep swimming around this way, pulling further away each second, until finally it is on the opposite side of its inner circle from where the beast is on the shore. At this point, the duck aims directly toward the closest shore and begins swimming that way. At this point, the duck has to swim [0.75R feet + 1 millimeter] to get to shore. Meanwhile, the beast will have to run R*pi feet (half the circumference of the river) to get to where the duck is headed.
The beast runs four times as fast as the duck, but you can see that it has more than four times as far to run:

[0.75R feet + 1 millimeter] * 4 < R*pi

[This math could actually be incorrect if R were very small, but, in that case, we could just say the duck swam inward even less than a millimeter and make the math work out correctly.]

Because the duck has less than a fourth of the distance to travel as the beast, it will reach the shore before the beast reaches where it is and successfully escape.

Solution:

-3 -1 1

Explanation:
-3 * 1 * -1 = 3(prime)
-1 - (-3) = 1 -(-1) = 2

Solution:

6:35 pm

Explanation:
Time of Frank Lampard last missed plane = 7:00 p.m - 50 min = 6:10 p.m
As this information has been given to Frank Lampard 15 minutes after the plane has already left, the air hostess gave the information at 6:10 p.m + 25 min = 6:35 p.m

Solution:

As we have been informed that the prices are a full dollar increment, this eases out the situation.

If we look at the price of pineapple and capsicum, we can easily make out that both of them are priced $1.
This is because the price has to be at least $1 and since both of them costs $2 together, they must cost $1 separately.

Solving the rest of the question is child’s play. You have to use simple mathematics.

For an instance:
Jalapeno + Pineapple = $5
Now, we know that pineapple costs $1. Thus,
Jalapeno + $1 = $5
Jalapeno = $4

You can find out the price for each one of the toppings in a similar fashion.
Capsicum $1
Pineapple $1
Mushrooms $3
Corn $2
Jalapeno $4
Red Pepper $2
Black Pepper $3
Olives $4

Solution:

Let us try to find average here.
The average number of hands per person among the people with one hand is 1 obviously.

Now in the remaining slot, half people have 1 arm and half have 2 arms. Therefore, the average arm per person is 1 only.

Now, if we combine both the results, we can conclude that the number of arms per person in that locality is 1.

Since the number of people living there is 200 in number, the number of arms will be 200 as well.

Solution:

The probability is 5/36.

Event = {(1,5) , (2,4), (3,3), (4,2), (5,1)}
Therefore, P (getting sum = 6) = 5/36

Solution:

Let the distance between Peter's (hereafter referred as P) and Rhea's (hereafter referred as R) be D.
When P and R meet for the first time, P has traveled 500 miles.
In that case, R has traveled (D - 500) miles.
=> Speed of P / Speed of R = 500 / (D - 500) ...... (1)

When P and R meet for the second time, P has traveled (D - 500) + 300 miles
Now, R has traveled (500 + D - 300)
=> Speed of P / Speed of R = 5 / (D - 5) ..... (2)

Equating (1) and (2)
500 / (D - 500) = (D - 2) / (D + 2)
D = 1200 Miles.

Solution:

5 questions

Explanation:
This question can be solved using a simple trick. If all the questions were answered correctly, the student would have 200 chocolates.
For every wrong answer, he will lose 5 chocolates and he will also lose 10 chocolates that he would have gained if he would have answered correctly. Thus, for every wrong answer, you have to deduct 15 chocolates from 200.
200 - 125 = 75
15 * 5 = 75
Hence, he gave wrong answer for 5 questions.

Solution:

3.75 hours

Explanation:
While you can solve it as you like, a simple mathematical equation can be used to find out.
Let M be the amount of petrol initially.
Let N be the time for which they drove.
According to the question, the amount of petrol used by first car in N hours = MN / 4
The amount of petrol used by second car in N hours = MN / 5
Hence, the amount of petrol left in the first car = (M - MN / 4)
The amount of petrol left in the second car = (M - MN / 5)
AS per the details given in the question, we can form the below equation:
M - MN / 5 = 4(M - MN / 4)
N = 15 / 4 or 3.75 hours.
Hence, both the drivers have driven the car for 3.75 hours at that particular time.
