Questions & Answers about ¿Habréis solucionado el problema para mañana?

Why does the sentence use habréis solucionado instead of just the future tense solucionaréis?
Habréis solucionado is the Future Perfect tense, which translates to "will have solved." It focuses on an action being completely finished before a specific point in the future (in this case, tomorrow). Solucionaréis just means "you will solve," without emphasizing that the task will be entirely completed by that deadline.
Who is the subject of habréis?
Habréis is the vosotros (informal plural "you") form of the helping verb haber in the future tense. Because you are learning Spain Spanish, you will use this form when asking a group of people you know well, like friends or colleagues, if they will have finished something.
Why do we use para instead of por to say "by tomorrow"?
When talking about deadlines or a specific time in the future by which an action must be completed, Spanish uses para. Using por here would sound incorrect, as por is used for durations of time or parts of the day (like por la mañana, meaning "during the morning").
Why is it el problema when the word ends in "-a"?
Problema is a masculine noun, which is why it uses el. As a quick refresher, many Spanish words that end in "-ma" and originate from Greek are masculine. Other common examples you have likely seen include el sistema, el programa, and el tema.
