Here’s a small riddle to test your problem-solving skills
Here’s a classic riddle that tests your logic and problem-solving skills. A farmer needs to cross a river with a fox, a chicken, and a bag of grain. He has a small boat that can only carry himself and one item at a time. If left alone together, the fox will eat the chicken, and the chicken will eat the grain.
The challenge is to figure out how the farmer can get everything safely across without anything being eaten. You can make multiple trips, but the key is ensuring that no harm comes to any item left alone on either side of the river. Can you crack the puzzle and find the right sequence of trips?
Puzzle Solution:
- Take the chicken across first, leaving it on the other side. Return alone to the starting side.
- Take the fox across next, but don’t leave it with the chicken. Instead, bring the chicken back with you to the starting side.
- Leave the chicken on the starting side, and take the grain across to the other side.
- Return alone to the starting side one last time.
- Finally, take the chicken across again.
Now, all three—fox, chicken, and grain—are safely on the other side without anything being eaten!
