Here are answers to Puzzles - 1

Check out the Puzzles - 1 if you have not seen yet and don't want to get the answers revealed!!
Interesting, as much they were, mind-boggling their solutions are!!
 

Ans-1) 0. Divide in 3, 3, 3.
             1. Compare 2 of them.
             2. Compare other set with one of them.
             3. Prologue) U know whether fake coin is heavier or lighter. and also u know, it's in which set.
             3. Main) now divide 3 into 1, 1, 1. Weigh any 2 of them. This gives u the knowledge of fake coin... :)


Ans-2)   192


Ans-3)
              There are 3 possible answers to it.

Answer 1 : 9
              Simply replace the first number by its square root.
              (25) 5 - 2 = 3
              (100) 10 x 2 = 20
              (36) 6 / 3 = 2
              (144) 12 - 3 = 9

Answer 2 : 11
              Drop the digit in the tens position from the first number.
              (2) 5 - 2 = 3
              1 (0) 0 x 2 = 20
              (3) 6 / 3 = 2
              1 (4) 4 - 3 = 11

              You will get the same answer on removing left and right digit alternatively from the first number i.e remove left digit from first (2), right digit from second (0), left digit from third (3) and right digit from forth (4).
             (2) 5 - 2 = 3
             10 (0) x 2 = 20
             (3) 6 / 3 = 2
             14 (4) - 3 = 11

Answer 3 : 14
             Drop left and right digit alternatively from the actual answer.
             25 - 2 = (2) 3 (drop left digit i.e. 2)
             100 * 2 = 20 (0) (drop right digit i.e. 0)
             36 / 3 = (1) 2 (drop left digit i.e. 1)
             144 - 3 = 14 (1) (drop right digit i.e. 1)

A Magic Mystery





In 1991, David Collison sent this figure to Canadian magic-square expert John Henricks, with no explanation, and then died.
It’s believed to be the first odd-ordered bimagic square ever discovered. Each row, column, and diagonal produces a sum of 369. The square remains magic if each number is squared, with a magic sum of 20,049.
No one knows how Collison created it.
