Your reasoning is off. Think again.

Hidden: 

The B might have a vowel, not an even number. So that falsifies the statement. The A might have odd #. The 7 might have a vowel. So hold on, perhaps the 6 doesn’t need to be flipped? Because no one said a consonant can’t have an even number as well. Is this it?

3 friends, Aretha, Belinda and Cassandra are playing ping pong. They play it their usual way; two players at a time - the winner stays on the table for the next game, and the loser lets the 3rd one play for the next round.
If Alices played 10 matches in total, Belinda 17 and Cassandra 15, who lost the second game?

You are on your way to visit your Grandma, who lives at the end of the valley. It’s her birthday, and you want to give her the cakes you’ve made.

Between your house and her house, you have to cross 7 bridges, and as it goes in the land of make-believe, there is a troll under every bridge! Each troll, quite rightly, insists that you pay a troll toll. Before you can cross their bridge, you have to give them half of the cakes you are carrying, but as they are kind trolls, they each give you back a single cake.

How many cakes do you have to leave home with to make sure that you arrive at Grandma’s with exactly 2 cakes?

Hidden: 

Haaaaaaaaa. I’m upto 46. But now I worked backwards and I believe it’s perfect to start with 2 cakes. What a waste of slices I drew here LOL

Your grandma’s wall clock chimes the appropriate number of times at every whole hour, and also once every 15 minutes. If you hear the wall clock chime once, how much more time maximum do you need to figure out what the time is, without looking at it?

The 12:15 one will give you a run for your money. I believe it will take till 1:45 to know for sure what’s going on because anything before that can be off with 15 minutes. So an hour and a half, final answer.

Ping pong game...
Hidden: 


I was going to write that Alices lost then I noticed the name change. If it’s just a typo then Belinda played against Cassandra the first and last game and won both so Alice lost second. For the rest of the games Belinda and Cassandra took turns winning
