I am in a 100-story building. I have with me two glass balls. I know
that if I throw the ball out of the window it will
never break if the floor number is less than F and it will always
break if the floor number is equal or greater than F.
Assuming that I can reuse the glass ball which didn't break, what is
the minimum number of throws required to find F and
the strategy to find F?

One day two mathematicians, Igor and Pavel, meet in the street.
"I have three sons," says Pavel. "The product of their ages is equal to
36." Looking around and then
pointing to a nearby house, Pavel says, "The sum of their ages is
equal to the number of windows in the building over
there."
Igor thinks for a minute and then responds, "Listen, Pavel, I cannot
find the ages of your sons."
"Oh, I am very sorry", says Pavel; "I forgot to tell you that my
oldest son has red hair."
Now Igor is able to find the ages of the brothers. Can you do it?

The Beatles have to be at a concert across the river in 17 minutes. The
problem is that the
bridge across the river is very weak and is strong enough to hold only
two people at a time
(only two people can cross at a time). They have only one flashlight
and anybody crossing
the river must have the flashlight at all times. John can cross the
bridge in 1 minute, Paul
needs 2 minutes, George needs 5 minutes and Ringo needs 10. can they
make it to the concert in time? If so, how?

Mr Smith and Mr Jones are two maths teachers, who meet up one day. Mr
Smith lives in a house with a number
between 13 and 1300. He informs Mr Jones of this fact, and challenges
Mr Jones to work out the number by asking closed questions.
Mr Jones asks if the number is bigger than 500. Mr Smith answers, but
he lies.
Mr Jones asks if the number is a perfect square. Mr Smith answers, but
he lies.
Mr Jones asks if the number is a perfect cube. Mr Smith answers and
(feeling a little guilty) tells the
truth for once.
Mr Jones says he knows that the number is one of two possibilities, and
if Mr Smith just tells him
whether the second digit is 1, then he'll know the answer.
Mr Smith tells him and Mr Jones says what he thinks the number is. He
is, of course, wrong.
What is the number of Mr Smith's house
