There are 100 doors, all closed. In a nearby cage are 100 monkeys. The first monkey is let out, and runs along the doors opening every one. The second monkey is then let out, and runs along the doors closing the 2nd, 4th, 6th,… all the even-numbered doors. The third monkey is let out. He attends only to the 3rd, 6th, 9th,… doors (every third door, in other words), closing any that is open and opening any that is closed, and so on. After all 100 monkeys have done their work in this way, what state are the doors in after the last pass, which doors are left open and which are closed ?

One fine day, Mr. Puzzle and Mr. Fry were playing cards, but suddenly power went off and they were getting bored. So Mr. Puzzle randomly inverted position of 15 cards out of 52 cards(and shuffled it) and asked Mr. Fry to divide the card in two pile with equal number of inverted cards(number of cards in each pile need not be equal).
It was very dark in the room and Mr. Fry could not see the cards, after thinking a bit Mr. Fry divided the cards in two piles and quite surprisingly on counting number of inverted cards in both the piles were equal.
What do you think Mr. Fry must have done?
