Solution:

It is not as tough as it seems. The strategy is quite simple. You just have to pick up a card out of first three whenever you find a 9 or higher number.

Let us offer you a strong valid reason for the strategy. The probability that the four card kept below are below the number nine is 32*31*30*29 / 52*51*50*49 = 0.133
Thus in such case, you will lose $2 to $9 with equal probability = 0.133/8 = 0.0166

Let us now calculate the probability that one of the four cards is nine or even higher.
1 – 0.133 = 0.867
Now you will surely stop at the first sight of 9 or any value above 9 as per the strategy. Thus you have a chance of winning -1, 0, 1, 2, 3 with an equal probability = 0.867/5 = 0.173

In such case you stand a chance of winning overall amount of 0.14 every game you play.

Let us consider the other strategies. If you want to stop at the sight of 10 or above 10, the expected amount you will win per game will be 0.09 which is way below the present strategy. If you want to stop at above ten only, you will have an expected winning in negative.

Solution:

Since each one of them gave one answer wrong, this means that each one of them gave two answers right.

Let us assume that Student A gave a wrong answer to the first question. This will mean that Student B also gave a wrong answer for the first. This will conclude that the rest of the two answers given by them are correct. However, the answers are different and thus it is not possible.

Thus both Student A and Student B must be right with the first question and the answer to the first is two.

If you keep applying the same logic, you will come to a conclusion that following are the correct answers:
Q1. Two
Q2. Three
Q3. Two

Solution:

When you were inside the shed, the murderer replaced the lock with his own one that was identical to your original lock.

Solution:

Fred Odea won.

Just look at the announcement lines. The first sentence in 'Ok now everybody!' If you take out just the first letter of every word, it will form 'ONE'. In the same manner the second sentence 'The winner of…..' will give form 'TWO' and the third sentence 'The Hardest Riddle Ever Event.' Will form THREE.

Thus the final sentence must form FOUR. There is only one candidate who can suffice with the first two letter and he is Fred Odea. The final sentence of the mastermind must be, 'Fred Odea: Ultimate Riddler!'
