As you can see in the picture, 20 matchsticks have been used to form five squares. What you have to do is move two of the matchsticks in a manner that seven squares are formed.Please note that you cannot overlap the matches or break them. The squares can be on any size but they must be closed squares.
As you can see in the picture, we have just moved two of the matchsticks and now we have seven squares of 1x1, 2x2 and 3x3 sizes.
Here is what you have to do. You have to throw a ball as hard as you can but it must return back to you even if it does not bounce at anything. Also, you have nothing attached to the ball. There is no one on the other end to catch that ball and throw it back at you.
How will you do it ?
To achieve this, you must throw that ball as hard as you can in the air and gravity will bring it back to you.

A B C D E F G H
These are the letters given to you. Now you have to find out the letter that comes two to the right of the letter which is immediately to the left of the letter that comes three to the right of the letter that comes midway between the letter two to the left of the letter C and the letter immediately to the right of the letter F.
Can you find it?
H is the answer.
In such questions, we usually start from the backwards. So start with the letter F and look at the right of it. It is the letter G. Now seek the letter two left to C i.e. A. Find the mid letter which will be D. Now go three right and stop at G. Go one left and you will have F. Finally go right twice and you will have the letter H.
