If you buy 3 trousers worth 23€30 each with a 50€ note, how much change are you left with?
13,1€
12,2€
14,6€
11,3€
13,1€
12,2€
14,6€
11,3€
....
[are these Euros? I see 23.30 * 3 = 69.90 which won't result in change for a 50]
....
Solve the following analogy :
LAVA is to VOLCANO what WATER is to ?
freeze
mountain
valley
chimney
source
lake
LAVA is to VOLCANO what WATER is to ?
freeze
mountain
valley
chimney
source
lake
...
[typical response is lake, but a volcano doesn't technically contain the lava. Clouds would be a better choice here. Source would be good, but there's the lack of definition]
...
Please mark the word not matching the others :
Whale
Shark
Herring
Dolphin
Pike
Whale
Shark
Herring
Dolphin
Pike
....
[whale is a common answer for it is a mammal -- please note that there is a dolphin fish, also common would be pike for it is a freshwater fish as opposed to oceanic; shark would work because they are only jaws, no other bones]

This shape was turned over upside-down, then swivelled, what is the result ?
....
["swiveled"? What's swiveled?]
...
Which is the missing drawing ?
...
[I met my match here]
...
Find the word written in the direct direction (of the needles of a watch) as well as the missing letter :

["written in direct direction", you're losing me here -- not a clue]
...
Which shape does not match the others ?
Circle
Cube
Triangle
Square
Rhombus

[cube is 3 dimensional; circle has no sides and not vertices]
...
Which face part does not match the others ?
Eye
Ear
Cheek
Nose
Eyebrow
Eye
Ear
Cheek
Nose
Eyebrow
...
[there is a hinted symmetry here; Whoopi Goldberg would fail -- nose (one); eyebrow typically considered hair is a non-feature]
...
Which word does not match the others ?
Copper
Tin
Iron
Bronze
Lead
Copper
Tin
Iron
Bronze
Lead
...
[bronze is an alloy, of course; lead not used in weapon usage but doesn't corrode (and floats like great gravy)
