10,100 yards. To collect the stones, the person must walk 1 yard to pick up the first stone, and then they had to double the distance each time - 2 yards, 4 yards, 8 yards etc. To find the answer we multiply 202 by 50 = 10,100 yards.

Let's say 6 statements are lies. A's 1st statement and C's 1st statement negate each other. One of them is a lie. C's and D's negate each other. One of them is lying. Therefore, there are 4 additional false statements. Assume A is guilty. If so, A's second statement, B's second statement, and D's first statement are the additional lies. Assume D is guilty. If so, A's second statement, B's first statement, and D's third statement are lies. This also only makes five false statements. D did not do it. Assume C did it. If so, A's second statement, D's first and third statements are false. This again, makes only five false statements. After ruling out suspects A, C and D, B is the culprit. B's third statement, C's second statement, and D's first and third statements are the additional false statements. This adds up to six.

Five animals are moving toward the river. Here's a detailed answer: 1 duck noticed 4 elephants as it was going toward the river. Hence, 1 animal (the duck) is moving to the river. The 4 elephants saw 2 monkeys going walking toward the river. Now comes the tricky part. You may think that each elephant saw 2 different monkeys walking toward the river. So you would conclude that 4 x 2 = 8 monkeys were going to the river. However, the task does not explicitly say that each elephant saw DIFFERENT monkeys. In fact, you can logically infer that the elephants saw the SAME 2 monkeys. Hence, we only have 2 additional animals (monkeys) moving toward the river. Since every monkey was carrying 1 dove, the 2 monkeys were carrying 2 doves in total. Summing up, we have 1 duck, 2 monkeys, and 2 doves moving to the river. 1 + 2 + 2 = 5 animals.
