Solution:

Let us assume that there are m male citizens
Then, the number of females will be (3553 – m)
According to question,
m/9 people received $45
And (3553-m)/12 received $60

Thus, total money spent by the wealthy man = (45 * (m / 9)) + (60 * (3552 - m) / 12)
= 5 * 3552
= $17,760

Solution:

It can be done in 8 moves as shown in the animated image below.

Solution:

Let us denote the number of boys as 'p' and the number of girls as 'q'.

The first statement says that each boy has equal numbers of brothers and sisters
(p - 1) = q
=> p - q = 1 ------- (a)

The second statement says that every girl has twice as many brothers as that of sisters
2 (q - 1) = p
=> 2q - p = 2 ------- (b)

By solving (a) and (b)
We get q as 3 and p as 4.

Therefore, there are 4 boys and 3 girls in the family.

Solution:

192

Explanation:
I started with the number 192.
Adding the reversed 291 to 192 gave me 483.
Similarly,
483 + 384 = 867
867 + 768 = 1635
1635 + 5361 = 6996

The teacher will use a simple trick to form a perfect impression. He will ask all his students to raise their hands on each of the question that is asked. But the only catch will be that those who knows the answer correctly will raise their right hand and others will raise their left hand.

In this way, the principal will see all the hands being raised for each question even though all won't be knowing the correct answer. The teacher will ask only those who know the answer and they will always be correct. So the principal will be impressed to full extent.

Solution:

There is no mention if you can use sign or not and thus the only possible way to get this is as follows:

(15 - 9) + (13 - 7) + (7 - 1) + (9 - 1) + (13 - 9)

If you solve inside the brackets, you will get the following equation
6 + 6 + 6 + 8 + 4
Adding all these numbers, you will get 30 which is the required sum.
