A Brain Cracking Riddle (if You Get The Answer Correctly A Recharge Card 4 U)
« on: October 15, 2009, 12:23 PM »

a man has 2 children ( they are twins) and a boat. the weight of the man is 14kg, the weight of the 2 children is 7kg each (i.e 14kg total) and the weight of the boat is 14kg. the man and his two children want to enter the boat and cross to the other side of the river. how are they going to do it?

here is a clue for you:

1. they will drown if they all enter the boat at once because their total weight will exceed that of the boat.

2. if only the man whose weight is equal to the weight of the boat enters the boat and cross to the other side of the river, who will return the boat for his 2 children to also cross?
