Answer 1

draw 5 lines to make a star.
put the coins at each corner and intersection of the lines.
u will have 5 lines of 4 coins each.

Answer 2

Draw a star and put the coin at the crossing line and the tip of the star. You should get 4 star at each line.

Answer 3

Just line up ten coins in one row, you can see four coins forming a line like so, look in the parenthases. X's are coins.
(x x x x) x x x x x x

then shift your attention to the next set of four like so

x (x x x x) x x x x x

and so on until you get to this

x x x x x x (x x x x)

you can do this five time making five rows, of four each.

Answer 4

It's definitely the star one.

Answer 5

First you'd have to double your money, or hope their chocolate coins and cut them in half, hehe. :)
