Solution:

Perhaps surprisingly, the apples now weigh 50 kilograms. The sack of apples originally weighed 100 kilograms, and 1 percent of its weight, or 1 pound, was non-water. If that 1 pound now makes up 2 percent of the total weight, then the total weight must be 50 kilograms.

Solution:

Adam and Eve were the only people without navel. As they were not born out of a mother, they never had umbilical cords and thus never had navels.

Solution:

The first step that they will take will be a leap of logic. What it means is that they will deduce that every color must appear twice at least. Why? Because the master logician has assured them that the puzzle will not be impossible for anyone of them. And if a color appears only once in the circle, the person wearing it will have no clue about that color which will not be fair for him.

Then the logicians will follow the same and look for all the colors of hats in the circle. If one of them sees a color just once, he can safely assume that he is also wearing the hat of the same color as by leap of logic, no color can appear just once. Thus when the bell is rung, he will leave.

In the similar fashion, if anyone sees another color just once, he can determine that he is wearing the hat of the same color and will leave when the bell rings or will be disqualified and sent home. Unvaryingly, if a color is seen twice, they will be eliminated after the first bell. Hence, there must be at least three hats of any of the remaining color.

Assume that you are sitting in the circle and you don’t see a color once but see it twice. Then if they were the only two hats of the same color, the logicians must have left at the first bell already. But they did not. Which means that there are three hats of that color and you are wearing one. Thus you will leave after the second bell.

Solution:

Solution can be verified from the picture below.

Solution:

2, 3, 10 and 10
To maintain the difference of eight and keeping in mind the third and fourth hint, the first and third cards can be 2 and 10 or 10 and 2. But keeping in mind the first hint, we know that the first card is 2 and the third is 10. Similarly, if we see the fifth hint, the difference between the second and fourth card should be 7. Thus we know that the second card is 3 and the fourth card is 10.

Solution:

They were playing tennis.

Tiger Phil
30 - 30
40 - 30 (Phil hit a bad shot)
Game won - 30 (Tiger hit an awesome shot)

Solution:

13 + 11 + 6 = 30

Explanation
The trick is that you just need to rotate '9' to form '6'.

Solution:

They used the planks in the manner that is shown in the figure.

Solution:

1

Explanation:
4 + 9 = 1
The trick to solve is to assume the first number as the time in AM and the second number is the number of hours you have to add to it. You'll find the time in PM when you do that.

For example
7 AM + 7 hours = 14:00 or 2 PM

4 AM + 9 hours = 13:00 or 1 PM.

Solution:

8/(1−1/5)

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)
