    A ferryman is tasked to transport 3 things to the other side of the river. A sheep, a wolf, and some vegetables. The boat can only carry one at a time. How can you transport each to the other side considering the following variables.

    1. You cannot leave the sheep with the wolf for it will be eaten.
    2. You cannot leave the vegetables with the sheep for it will be eaten.

    How do you think you should solve this.

    Come on man....
    That is possibly the oldest riddle known to mankind...
    Did you actually expect people not to know it?

    I couldn't remember it but I knew it, a riddle is something like:
    If I is what I'm isn't, If i'm what I weren't, If i'm what I know then what am I?

    Yeah... Old thing... Someone ''tested'' me or something with this and one other kind of version of this [or something [You had to transport 3 humans, 2 50kg and 1 100kg...]] couple years ago..

    Can you give something mathematical to solve^^' maybe your homeworks if you have ^^'' [I'm not dissing or something ._.']
