(1) FENCE MAKING: 18 posts needed. And, yes, the gap between each post will NOT be 3 metres every time. Get real - this is a fence, not an architectural drawing!

(2) NUMBING NUMBERS: 
[a] one solution: 5 + 5/5 + .5 = 6 1/2
Another solution: .5 + .5 + .5 + 5 = 6 1/2
[b] 22 + 2 = 24
[c] one solution: 99/99 + 99 = 100
Another solution: 99 + (9 ÷ 9) + (9 –) 9) = 100

(3) THE HUNGRY CAT:  Start from the 5th mouse clockwise from the brown mouse and travel clockwise. Or start from the 5th mouse anti-clockwise from the brown mouse and travel anti-clockwise.
