Solution:

The required number is 499449.

The maximum sum of a number under 5 lakh will be of the number 499999 i.e. 49.
Thus the required number must be close to 499999.
The root of 499999 ~ 707.106
By calculating the square of 707, we get 499849 which is the answer.

Solution:

The figure tells that B is located to the North-East of E.

Solution:

We have provided you with one of the possible solutions. However, there can be three more solutions to this problem.

Solution:

2418

Explanation:
The rule that is being followed here is

P ~ Q ~ R ~ S = [first digit of (P * S)] [last digit of (Q * R)] [first digit of (Q * R)] [last digit of (P * S)]

Using the same rule in the incomplete equation,
7 ~ 2 ~ 7 ~ 4 = [first digit of (7 * 4)] [last digit of (2 * 7)] [first digit of (2 * 7)] [last digit of (7 * 4)]
= 2418

Thus 2418 is the missing number.

Solution:

4

Explanation:
5 = Five (four letters) => 4
7 = Seven (five letters) => 5
10 = Ten (three letters) => 3
3 = Three (five letters) => 5

Therefore, 9 = Nine (four letters) => 4.

Therefore the missing number is 4.

Solution:

The figure shows how we have done it. If you have any other idea in mind, feel free to comment below.

Solution:

The murderer is Jack.

Christopher is the seer so exclude him.
Now, if Danny was murderer, then Garry should have been killed.
Now we know that Garry was blocked. Therefore he cannot be the murderer.
Harry can't be the killer as he was killed himself.
This leaves with Jack.

Solution:

You can see how we did that in the given picture. The idea is to covert the boundaries first and then move to inner squares. If you have another solution, you can send us that or comment with it below.

Solution:

Girl

Explanation:
In the House P:
There can be three possibilities.
Older Younger
Boy Girl
Girl Boy
Boy Boy
Since a boy is mentioned, we can't have a Girl-Girl option. Now all these options are equally possible and thus we will take them all into account. Two of the outcome have girls as an option and thus the probability here will be 2/3.

In the House Q:
We know that the elder child is a boy and thus there can be only two possibilities:
Older Younger
Boy Girl
Boy Boy

Here, the probability of having a girl child will be 1/2.

Thus you must choose the house P as we have better probability of having a girl in that house.

Solution:

If you are thinking to hold one chocolate from each box in hand and then balancing weight in bare hands, you are thinking all wrong.

Let us begin by labelling boxes as 1, 2, 3 and so on till 10.

Now pick one chocolate from box 1, two chocolates from box 2, three from box 3 and so on. In total, you will have 55 chocolates now. (1 + 2 + 3 + ..... + 10)

The ideal weight of the chocolates should be 55 * 20 = 1100. However, somewhere in there are the defected chocolate/s.

You can judge that clearly by noting down the result of 1100 - total weight of chocolates. If the weight is less than 1 gram, the defected box is box 1, if the weight is less than 2 grams, the defected box is box 2 and so on.
