In the Apples and Oranges puzzle, I disagree with the assumption that the box labeled 'Orange' must contain only oranges. It could also contain a mixture of apples and oranges.

The last puzzle about the egg left in the basket is confusing. Can you clarify the question?

The explanation for the elevator puzzle is incorrect. The man is a dwarf and can only reach the 7th button. On rainy days, he uses his umbrella to press the 10th button.

The wording in puzzle 10 could be clearer. Instead of saying she has 6 pairs of black socks and 6 pairs of white socks, it might be better to say it's a mixture of 12 black and 12 white socks.
