Solution:

'2'

This single sequence in fact consists of two Series:
The first Series is 2-3-4-5-...
and
The second Series is 9-18-36-72-... .

Solution:

The second statement
(Two statements here are false.)

Solution:

Concrete floors are very hard to crack

Solution:

128

Explanation:
If we start from the small squares and the move up the scale, we can identify them without a problem.
1x1 squares = 62
2x2 squares = 41
3x3 squares = 18
4x4 squares = 6
5x5 squares = 1

Now, totaling them, we get:
62 + 41 + 18 + 6 + 1 = 128 squares.

Solution:

Yes there is a way considering if you can find a magnifying glass. Using the bright sunrays, you can then burn away the string allowing the ring to fall down on the bottom of the bottle.

Solution:

2hr 11min

Explanation:
Now this question cannot be solved unless you know a fact i.e. the hour hand is exactly on the minute mark five times every hour - on the hour, 12 minutes past hour, 24 minutes past hour, 36 minutes past hour and 48 minutes past hour.

Denoting the number of hours with X and the number of minutes as Y, let us begin with the calculation.

When we have the hour hand on the minute mark, the position of hour hand:
5X + Y/12
And the position of the minute hand = Y

When the first observation was taken,
Y = Y = 5X + Y/12 + 6
Or, 60X = 11Y - 72.

With the given facts, we know for sure that Y can only be 0, 12, 24, 36 or 48.
According to which, the possible values for X and Y can be 1 and 12 respectively. Thus the time must be 1:12 when the first observation was taken.

Similarly, in the second observation, let's make the equation:
60X = 11Y - 84
Here, the possible values for X and Y here are 3 and 24 respectively. According to this, the time is 3:24 for sure.

From 1:12 to 3:24, two hours and eleven minutes have passed.

Solution:

If you look at the answer figure, you will see four 1x1 squares and one 4x4 square. Nobody asked you to make five 1x1 squares. Most of the people get stuck at that.

Solution:

The deaf beggar as the sister of the person who died.

Solution:

Here, there are two events that are independent of each other. Now, in such case, we calculate the probability of both occurring A and Bas:
P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B)
P(Pink) = 1/5
P(Pink and Pink) = P(Pink) * P(Pink)
= 1/5*1/5
= 1/25

Solution:

The best way is to divide the batteries in three groups. Take three batteries in two groups each and two batteries in the third group.

In the groups with three batteries, you can have three possible combinations in each group. In the group with two batteries, you can have just one possible combination.

If you add the combinations: 3 + 3 + 1 = 7, you get the least number of pairs you must check.
