Solution:

You may solve this question with different methods but we are only giving away one.

What you have to do in that method is look for a number x to which all the numbers from 2 to 10 divide evenly. Multiplying the numbers together (2*3*4*5*6*7*8*9*10) will give you a big number but we have to find a smaller possibility. What we can do is find the prime factors, a subset of which we can use to form a number from 2 to 10.

2*2*2*3*3*5*7 will certainly give us what we need. The product is 2520 and it is the lowest possible number which can be evenly divided by 2-10.

Now if we add 1 to the number, the result will be 2521 which will satisfy all the conditions from 2 to 10. But will not hold true in case of 11.

If you calculate, you will see that you can multiply 2520 by any integer and add 1 to it to satisfy all the conditions except the divisibility by 11. What we need is an integer Y that can be multiplied by 2520 and if we add 1 to the product, it becomes divisible by 11.

2520/11 leaves a remainder 1. Now let us keep increasing the number of 2520. Suppose if we divide two 2520 by 11, the remainder then will be 1 + 1 = 2. If we keep going on like that. Ten 2520 when divided by 11 will give 10 as remainder and if we add 1 to them, it will be completely divisible. Also it will satisfy all the conditions from 2-10.

Thus our answer is 25201.

Solution:

Both will rotate at Same speed.

Explanation:
Gears of the same size will always rotate at constant speeds despite any smaller or larger gears in between them.

Solution:

Fifteen Minutes.

After frying for five minutes, you can take out one steak and put the third one inside while turning the other one inside. After five more minutes, one steak is fried from both sides and you can take it out. Now put in the steak that we removed and turn the other one inside. After five more minutes, they both will also be fried from both sides.

Solution:

The probability of two numbers being relatively prime is 60%. Thus if you keep playing the bet, you will hypothetically make 20 cents on every play.

Thus, you should accept the bet.

Solution:

Steps:
1) Light fire on first bar from both the ends and second bar from one end.

2) After 30 seconds(when first bar gets completely burned out) , burn the second bar from second end as well.

3) When second run completely gets burned , you know its 45 seconds.

Solution:

Put one black rock in one sack and put all the rest in the other one. In such manner you will get about 3/4 probability of surviving.

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:

2 degree below zero

Solution:

This problem can be solved with algebra as well as logical reasoning. We are going to tell you how it is logically possible.

Be it any quantity that was present in the beginning and any liquid as well. We know that we have taken a spoonful from one glass and put it into another. Then, we have taken a spoonful from the other glass and put it into the first glass. So, at the end of it, the quantity of liquid in either glass remains same as it was in the beginning.

Therefore, we can conclude the fact that any amount of coke that is missing in the glass with coke will be present in the lemonade glass. Also, the same quantity of lemonade will be missing from the lemonade glass and will be present in the coke glass.

Solution:

Read the question carefully again. New Year do falls after Christmas but that happens if two different years. The question is put up against the year 2050 and thus there will be 51 weeks and 2 days in between them as New Year will appear on 1 January 2050 and Christmas will happen on 25 December 2050.
