Solution:

Starting with 1 marble in a bag, each bag contains double the number of marbles as the previous bag.
ie 1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512.

That way whatever number of marbles I would ask for you would just add up the boxes to equal the number asked.

Solution:

The complete addition looks as follows:

  167161 +
  664711 +
  162166 +
  164611

Solution:

9376

Looking at the last digit, the last digit must be either 0, 1, 5 or 6.
Then looking at the last two digits, the last two digits must be either 00, 01, 25 or 76.
Then looking at the last three digits, the last three digits must be either 000, 001, 625 or 376.
Then looking at the last four digits, the last four digits must be either 0000, 0001, 0625 or 9376.
Out of those, only 9376 is a 4 digit number

Solution:

143547

Solution:

2519

The number has to end in 9.
Looked brute force for small numbers.
59 and 119 were promising, but no cigar.

Then looked for agreement among
39 + multiples of 40,
69 + multiples of 70 and
89 + multiples of 90
Smallest one was 2519.

Solution:

If all other conditions are fair, then the toss will generate a 52:48 distribution in the favor of heads. The toss boas factor will then be 52/48.

Using the same approach, if the coin will generate a 49:51 distribution in the favor of tails, the coin bias factor for heads will be 49/51.

Using the results, we can say that the combined bias factor is (52 * 49) / (51 * 48) = 2548 / 2448 which can be canceled if the floor bias factor is 2448 / 2548. The floor will generate a distribution factor of 2448 / (2558 + 2448) : 2548 + 2448) in favor of tails. If you calculate roughly, it will be 51.00080064% tails.

Solution:

The dot over a number signifies that it is a repeater which would go on for ever, as when we endeavor to describe 1/3 decimally as 0.33333 . . . . (etc)
With a series of numbers we place the dot over the first and last, as with 0.97979797979 . . . (etc)
The remarkable feature being that a proper fraction divided by 9s e.g. 46/99 is exactly equal to the numerator with the repeater sign followed by the decimal.

Solution:

1/6227020800

Explanation
This can be solved through a simple mathematical equation.

N cards have n! permutations.
Therefore, the probability of obtaining a specific one by chance is 1/n!

Now, in this particular case, n = 13
Therefore, the required probability is 1/6227020800

Solution:

Let us assume,
the radius of the river is R.
the speed of beast is S.
the speed of duck is S/4.
Circumference = 2 * Pi * R.

Now, if duck swims R/4 distance from the center of the river and then begins to swim across the river in center implies both duck and beast can take the round trip in same time.
Explanation :
time by beast : 2 * Pi* R * S
time by duck : 2 * Pi* R/4 * S/4 => 2 * Pi* R * S


Now, the duck can move slowly inward toward the center of the river, and begin swimming around the center in a circle from this distance. It is now going around a very slightly smaller circle than it was a moment ago, and thus will be able to swim around this circle FASTER than the beast can run around the shore.

The duck can keep swimming around this way, pulling further away each second, until finally it is on the opposite side of its inner circle from where the beast is on the shore. At this point, the duck aims directly toward the closest shore and begins swimming that way. At this point, the duck has to swim [0.75R feet + 1 millimeter] to get to shore. Meanwhile, the beast will have to run R*pi feet (half the circumference of the river) to get to where the duck is headed.
The beast runs four times as fast as the duck, but you can see that it has more than four times as far to run:

[0.75R feet + 1 millimeter] * 4 < R*pi

[This math could actually be incorrect if R were very small, but, in that case, we could just say the duck swam inward even less than a millimeter and make the math work out correctly.]

Because the duck has less than a fourth of the distance to travel as the beast, it will reach the shore before the beast reaches where it is and successfully escape.
