Solution:

There is a simple logic to solve this question.
The size of the chocolate is 2 x 8. Thus, you need to have 2 x 8 = 16 pieces.
Every time you break the chocolate, you will get one extra piece.
Thus, to get 16 pieces, you must break it (16 - 1) = 15 times.

Solution:

30,450 miles.

Explanation:
For each 5 miles driven using this rotation, each tire will lose (2/29000)+(2/21000) of its tread.So, suppose we drive 5*N miles like this. Then, each tire will lose 2*N*((1/29000)+(1/21000)) of its tread. We wish to determine N so that the latter expression gets to be 1, representing all of each tire's tread. That happens when N=6090, which is when 5*N (the total miles driven) is 30,450.

Solution:

Let m be initial number of flowers and n be the flowers offered at each temple by the man.
Initial flowers = m
After stepping into the first temple = 2m
Flowers offered at the first temple = n
Remaining flowers = 2m – n

After stepping into the second temple = 4m – 2n
Flowers offered at the second temple = n
Remaining flowers = 2m – n

After stepping into the third temple = 8m – 6n
Flowers offered at the third temple = n
Remaining flowers = 8m – 7n

Now as per the question (8m – 7n) must be equal to 0.
i.e. 8m – 7 n = 0
or 8m = 7y

Now the least numbers required to solve this equation are 7 and 8 for m and n respectively.

Thus m = 7; n = 8
Which means, the man had 7 flowers in the beginning and he offered 8 flowers at each temple.

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:

I + IX = X

The equation read from the other side becomes X = XI + I which is false.

Solution:

Sam : 2
Dean : 5
Castiel : 7

Age diff
7 - 2 = '5' is prime
7 - 5 = '2' is prime
5 - 2 = '3' is prime

Solution:

Tuesday

We know that Christanio Ronaldo tells the truth on only a single day of the week. If the statement on day 1 is untrue, this means that he tells the truth on Monday or Tuesday. If the statement on day 3 is untrue, this means that he tells the truth on Wednesday or Friday. Since Christanio Ronaldo tells the truth on only one day, these statements cannot both be untrue. So, exactly one of these statements must be true, and the statement on day 2 must be untrue.
Assume that the statement on day 1 is true. Then the statement on day 3 must be untrue, from which follows that Christanio Ronaldo tells the truth on Wednesday or Friday. So, day 1 is a Wednesday or a Friday. Therefore, day 2 is a Thursday or a Saturday. However, this would imply that the statement on day 2 is true, which is impossible. From this we can conclude that the statement on day 1 must be untrue.

This means that Christanio Ronaldo told the truth on day 3 and that this day is a Monday or a Tuesday. So day 2 is a Sunday or a Monday. Because the statement on day 2 must be untrue, we can conclude that day 2 is a Monday.

So day 3 is a Tuesday. Therefore, the day on which Christanio Ronaldo tells the truth is Tuesday.

Solution:

You better switch!

Your first choice has a 1/3 chance of having the car, and that does not change.<br>The other two doors HAD a combined chance of 2/3, but now a Goat has ben revealed behind one, all the 2/3 chance is with the other door.

Solution:

At each draw, the number of strawberry candies are either decreasing by 2 or not decreasing at all. In the case of orange candies, at each draw, they are either increasing by 1 or decreasing by 1.

Thus on an assumed outset with at least one candy in the jar to begin with, if the number of strawberry candies are 0 or are even in numbers, they will finish off leaving an orange candy at the end. If otherwise, the remaining candy will be a strawberry one.

Solution:

16

Explanation:
9 [1x1] squares
5 [2x2] squares
1 [4x4] square
1 [4x4] square

9 + 5 + 1 + 1 = 16 squares.
