I'll do problem 1 to get you started.

This is what the 1st question looks like when each premise gets its own line.
1. R ⊃ (G v ~A)
2. (G v ~A) ⊃ ~S
3. G ⊃ S
4. R
:. ~A

Here is one way to do the derivation.

1R -> (G v ~A)
2(G v ~A) -> ~S
3G -> S

5R -> ~S1,2Hypothetical Syllogism

7G v ~A1,4Modus Ponens
8~G3,6Modus Tollens
9~A7,8Disjunctive Syllogism

I used arrows in place of the horseshoe symbols.
