Explanation:
The children can purchase 19 chocolates in return.

Out of 77 wrappers, 75 will be used to buy 15 chocolates and two will be left spare.
The 15 chocolates will create 15 empty wrappers that can be exchanged to get three chocolates.

Solution:

It will take the man 58 minutes to reach the top.

Since he is climbing 3 feet and falling 2 feet back every passing minute, he is actually climbing 1 feet every minute.
Therefore, he would have climbed 57 feet in 57 minutes. The remaining distance is 3 feet. He will take one more minute to climb it and reach the surface. Since he has reached the top surface, he won't slip back.

Solution:

1 2 3 4 5 6 and 7 8 6

Since summation of numbers 1-9(1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9) is 45 , so its impossible to divide into two equal parts.
Since we cant flip over 6 to make it 9 but we can flip 9 to make it 6 and hence the solution
