#6. Today is Monday. What day of the week will it be 61 days from today?

#5. You have two coconuts and you want to find out how high they can be dropped from a 100 story building before they break. Now, the elevator in this building costs a quarter to operate-meaning you want to minimize the number of trips you must take.

How many trips would it take to figure out how far the coconuts can fall without breaking?

#4. You have 8 batteries (4 charged, 4 uncharged) and a flashlight which needs 2 to work. You do not know which batteries are charged and which ones are uncharged.

What is the least number of attempts to make the flashlight work?

#3. An intelligent trader travels from one place to another with 3 sacks having 30 coconuts each. No sack can hold more than 30 coconuts. On the way, he passes 30 check points. At each check point, he has to give one coconut for every sack he is carrying. What is the maximum number of coconuts that he can have with him at the end of his journey?

#2. Three spies, suspected as double agents, speak as follows when questioned: Albert: “Bertie is a mole.” Bertie: “Cedric is a mole.” Cedric: “Bertie is lying.”

Assuming that moles lie, other agents tell the truth, and there is just one mole among the three, who is the mole?

#1. Bill, Ken and Mark are, not necessarily in this order, a quarterback, a receiver, and a kicker. The kicker, who is the shortest of the three, is a bachelor. Bill, who is Ken’s father-in-law, is taller than the receiver.

Who plays in which position?
