First Quetion Answer:

If you answer that you arrived first, then you are absolutely wrong!!! Cause you overtake the second and you take his place so you arrived second!!! To answer the second question don't take as much time as you took for the first question.

Second Question Answer:

If you answer that you arrived second last then you are wrong again. Tell me, how can you overtake the LAST !!!! The question is wrong! You're not very good at this are you???

Third Question Answer: Did you get 5000 or something other than 4100?

The correct answer is actually 4100. Don' t believe it? Check with your calculator! The decimal sequence confuses our brain, that always jumps to the highest decimals (100s instead of 10s)

Fourth question answer:

let total length of fish be x, now 30 + (x/2) = x by solving it x= 60 cms....

AND WHAT ABOUT THE FOURTH ONE?

There wasn't anything distinctly tricky about this. I got it from the first try, and I didn't even use pen and paper.
