Riddle
A farmer is taking a fox, a chicken, and a bag of grain home. To get there, he must cross a river, but he's only allowed to take one item across the bridge at a time. If the fox is left alone with the chicken, the fox will eat the chicken. If the chicken is left alone with the grain, the chicken will eat the grain. How can the farmer cross the river without any of his possessions being eaten?
Solution:
Take the chicken across and leave it on the other side. Then go back. Get the fox and bring it to the other side and take the chicken back with you. Take the grain to the other side and leave it there. Then get back and get the chicken.
Is there an alternate answer?
Yes!
Solution 2:
Take the chicken across and leave it on the other side. Then go back. Get the grain and bring it to the other side and take the chicken back with you. Take the fox to the other side and leave it there. Then get back and get the chicken.
