it's right,the new millenium really did'nt start til 12/31/01,because you still had to count 2000 as part of the previous millenium,1901-2000 =100 years

That's one of the ones that struck me odd. The wording needs to be changed to read
A group of 5 people must contain at least 3 mutual friends or 3 mutual strangers.
The way it is in the test the answer could be true or false depending upon if the writer wanted to ask a trick question or a legitimate question. If trick then the answer could be false as the group might have 4 or 5 mutual friends/strangers and tus did not have three.
also
give the color question we can derive the folowing:
p+r=y
p+g=b
y+g=?[o]
(p+r)+(b-p)=?[o]
r+b=?[o]
Well. Given that we know - NOTHING! The answer could be true or fase given that we don't have a single value! Sure this leads one to think the answer is false but again - is it a trick question?
I think its the speed with which you hit the answer from the previous answer on the colour one - recognising that it is complete nonsense and hitting false.
As for the friends and strangers - the group size is the key here - 2 +3
If 2 are friends there are therefore 3 strangers and vice versa. The point is they are either friends or strangers. If they are friends, to be able to be friends requires a minimum of two, therefore 3 can be strangers.

Is this a trick question?
If a tree branch can hold three people and John weighs twice as much as Adam, and Rachel weighs half as much as Adam, then Rachel, John and Adam can all sit together on the tree branch safely.
It says the "branch can hold three people". It doesn't say anything about weight limitations of the branch. This is either a trick question or just an indication this test is retah-ded. Me thinks the latter.
Try some LSAT questions if you want to find out how smart you really are.
Do You Realize? - that you have the most beautiful face
Do You Realize? - we're floating in space -
Do You Realize? - that happiness makes you cry
Do You Realize? - that everyone you know someday will die

Of course it's a trick question
A tree can hold 3 people - no specs are given for weight bearing.... therefore it matters not what the three people weigh.
if person A weighs 100lbs, person B 200 lbs, person c 50lbs combined weight is 350 lbs
If there were 7 x 50lb people, could the branch hold them? No - because it can only hold 3 people....

I believe that that question is false. I can be friends with two other people, but they have never met each other, and each of those can have one other friend, but those two are also friends. In that way, each person is a friend with exactly two other people who do not know each other. The two people that a person doesn't know are friends with each other, however, so that is a situation where there are not at least three mutual strangers or three mututal friends.

0-----0
each 0 is a friend and each line indicates a friendship. You cannot find 3 people who are mutual friends (each knows each other) or mutual strangers (no one knows each other).
*(ignore the dollar signs, I can't get the picture to come out right using just spaces)

mutual, is the keyword.
While you may be the link to two sets of friends, they are not mutual friends.
