There are five men, let's say Tarun Harish Lavesh, Manoj, and Manish. All of them have a dot mark on their forehead. They can't see the dots on their forehead but can see the ones on others. The owner of WHITE Dot is an honest person and will never lie, while the owner of BLACK Dot always tells the lie.

This is the statement from Tarun Harish Lavesh and Manish:
Tarun: 'I see 3 whites and 1 black'
Harish: 'I see 4 black'
Lavesh: 'I see 3 black and 1 white'
Manish: 'I see 4 white'

What colour is the dot on each of Tarun Harish Lavesh, Manoj, and Manish's forehead?

A man had five children. He had $100 with him to give to his children. He decided to start with the youngest child and then give $2 more than each younger child to his next elder child.

For example, if he gives $x to the youngest child, he will give $(x+2) to the next one, $[(x+2) + 2] to the next one and so on.

Can you find out how much did the youngest one receive?
