However, if the wolf and the goat are let alone, the wolf eats up the goat. If the goat and the cabbage are let alone, the goat will eat the cabbage.
Question: How can the man cross the river with the two animals and the cabbage?

LOL!![]()
A man, with his wolf, goat and cabbage are on side A. He wants to bring them to side B without any of them eating up the other. (Except the cabbage, which can't eat any of the other).
1) He takes the goat with him from side A to side B
2) He takes the wolf with him from side A to side B
3) He takes with him the goat to side A from side B (Now the wolf is left alone on side B).
4) He exchanges the goat with the cabbage on side A - taking with him the cabbage to side B. (Now the wolf and the cabbage are on side B together and the goat is alone on side A).
5) He goes back and gets the goat - successfully bringing all his "belongings" to side B without letting any of them eat any of the other...
