A man had a dog, a duck, and a bucket of corn. Due to the thunderstorm he took the shortcut home. He forgot that he had to crawl through a small culvert along the shortcut. The dog would not crawl through the culvert no matter what the man tried. The man has to crawl through the culvert carrying only one at a time. He can't take the dog lst because the duck will eat the corn. He can't take the corn 1st because the dog will eat the duck. So he takes the duck 1st because the dog will probably not eat the corn. The man then crawls back through the culvert for the dog or the bucket of corn. The man now realizes that if he takes either of them over that while he is coming back for the last one something is going to get eaten on the other side. The man figures out a way to safely get all three to the other side in only three trips. CAN YOU???

man screw that I have notta maybe because its late as &$&@!!! lata

haha. i agree with both. we did these in problem solving last year...but i'm wayyyy too tired to think...heh. i generally enjoy these too...

I got it, but I don't want to ruin it for everyone else.

Go ahead Captain then I won't have too!

hmmmm... take the duck over, leave it there while he gets the dog, then bring the duck back with him and leave it while he takes the corn, then go back and get the duck? Can he do that?

i think i got it too! yay me and captain! hahaha.

Good thinking Vanilla!!!!!!!

DOH.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol

i know how to do it!!!

duck first
then go back for the dog.
drop off the dog, and grab the duck.
take the duck back and drop him off again, grab the corn
drop off the corn.
go back for the duck.

wait....thats 4 trips....

ok, you have to email me the solution.


....unless the dog is carrying the bucket of corn around his neck!...

yeah, SOMEONE needs to email me the answer or I will go nuts!

lol

No that's 3 trips through the culvert and you figured it out too!

OOPS That is four trips. Now you got me confused.

Take the dog through the culvert, grab the duck and take it back, grab the corn and drop a few pieces of corn as he goes through the culvert so the duck will follow.

Okay. Get your thinking caps on.

A man wants to take a two mile trip, and average 60 mph.
The first mile, he only goes 30 mph. How fast will he have to go in the second mile to average 60 mph for the whole trip.

Hint: The answer is not 90 mph.

ok well i don't wanna get 2 in a row.... so i will let someone else figure this one out :-)

This is a tough one. I will be very impressed if anyone gets it right.

Is it 180mph?

ummm 30? lol
