Solution:

5 questions

Explanation:
This question can be solved using a simple trick. If all the questions were answered correctly, the student would have 200 chocolates.
For every wrong answer, he will lose 5 chocolates and he will also lose 10 chocolates that he would have gained if he would have answered correctly. Thus, for every wrong answer, you have to deduct 15 chocolates from 200.
200 - 125 = 75
15 * 5 = 75
Hence, he gave wrong answer for 5 questions.

Solution:

45 minutes

Explanation :
All you have to do is burn the first rope from both the ends and the second rope from one end only simultaneously. The first rope will burn in 30 minutes (half of an hour since we burned from both sides) while the other rope would have burnt half. At this moment, light the second rope from the other end as well. Where, the second rope would have taken half an hour more to burn completely, it will take just 15 minutes as we have lit it from the other end too.

Thus you have successfully calculated 30+15 = 45 minutes with the help of the two given ropes.

Solution:

I spoke with Joe.

Explanation:
There can be only two cases. Either Zoe is a liar or Joe is a liar.

First Case
Let us assume that Zoe is a liar and Joe is a truthful person.

Second Case

If I asked the question from Joe, the answer will be yes. If I asked the question from Zoe, the answer will be no. Thus in this case as well, I must have asked from Joe only.
