It's an exchange.
As one person is leaving the boat, the other person is entering at the same time (simultaneously).
A and b can't stay together for even a second!

My answer is correct.
Don't worry about the airtime

..on your second paragraph..if the first child and mother cross, the mother of the first child will eat up the already crossed 2nd child

She's still in the boat. Only her child gets out. She can't eat the other child.

I'm faster hehehe
You are not a mathematician

Cos you said let this be a or b or c? One doesn't need to be a mathematician to do that. I just didn't want to cos I know some people reading may want plain straight English. Lol.

Congrats on being faster.

I am not disputing the fact that they are witches. It's just a riddle.

That's my final answer tho.

When you finally get the answer you believe is correct, notify me.

Thanks.

.this riddle will take you an entire week..if not months...3 witches with 3 of thier children ; each child for one mother...are about to cross to the other side of a river,with a boat that can contain just two persons.(no padler) in the absence of any of the mother,her child will sure be eaten by any mother witch present..but child don't each child..how can they all cross over intact...get it. and I owe u airtime

Let the 3 mothers be letters A, B, C
Let their 3 children be letters a, b, c respectively
Let the side of the river they're currently on be S1
Let the other side be S2

Solution:
A&a cross to S2, leaving behind B,b,C&c on S1
A returns to S1, leaving behind a on S2
b&c cross to S2, leaving behind A,B,C on S1
c returns to S1, leaving behind a&b on S2
A&B cross to S2, leaving behind C&c on S1
B&b returns to S1, leaving behind A&a on S2
B&C cross to S2, leaving behind b&c on S1
a returns S1, leaving behind A,B&C on S2
a&b cross to S2, leaving behind c on S1
b returns to S1, leaving behind A,a,B&C on S2
Finally, b&c cross to S2 and they're all complete.

At no point is any child left with another child's mother.

Bsoam:


Let mothers be A, B & C and the children be a, b & c respectively. A & a cross first, a drops, A takes back the boat. b & c cross next, any one of the them can take the boat back. let's say c. c takes the boat back, then A & B cross to the other side. Any mother and child can take the boat back, let's use Aa. A & a takes the boat back, a drops and B and A cross to the other side. A & B drop and b takes the boat to the other side. This way all the mothers are on the other side. a & b comes back, a takes the boat to bring c. And everybody has successfully crossed without anyone being there without it mother.

You were almost there
