Here are the answers for the test that you just took:

  1. 1. 52 + 52 = 72 + 12 = 50. Write out all squares of positive integers from 1 to 10, and see if you can match them in pairs that have the same sum.
  2.  
  3. 2.  1 mile. The boy and the girl will meet in 1/7 of an hour. During that time the dog will be able to run only one mile (its speed is 7 mph).
  4.  
  5. 3. 2 min.
  6.  
  7. 4. yes, yes, yes. The number is divisible by 1001, which, in turn, is divisible by 7, 11, and 13.
  8.  
  9. 5. 1020. 1020 = 1010 * 1010, while 2010 = 210 * 1010.
  10.  
  11. 6.  Old man made a mistake. 1/2, 1/4, 1/5 add up to 19/20, not 1, therefore horses could not be divided evenly among his sons according to his will.
  12.  
  13. 7.  The man who was walking along the river.
  14.  
  15. 8. 1892. He was 44 in 1936 (442).

  17. 9. 900 inches.
  18.  
  19. 10.  Yes. Fill the 5 gallon jug, and pour 3 gallons out of it into the smaller jug. Empty 3 gallon jug out, and pour the remaining 2 gallong out of the 5 gallon jug into it. Fill 5 gallon jug again with water, and pour one gallon into the smaller jug, filling it up. That will leave exactly 4 gallons in the large jug. (Or you might want to watch "Die Hard With a Vengeance" one more time.)
  20.  
  21. 11.  69. Add numbers in sequence +2, +3, +4, +5, omitting the numbers that already exist in the series.
