- Father
- Mother
- Son
- Daughter
- Maid
- Dog
Only 1 small boat is available to bring them across.
The boat is big enough for only 2 people OR 1 person + dog.
Here's the tricky part:
- Only Father, Mother and Maid knows how to row the boat.
At all times,
- Father cannot be alone with the Son, without the Mother, or else he will hit the Son.
- Mother cannot be alone with the Daughter, without the Father, or else she will slap the Daughter
- Maid MUST be with the Dog, or else the Dog will bite anyone in sight.
So how can the family of 6 get across the river, without getting hit, slapped or bitten?
Have Fun!!!

He did solve it.
But same thing.... he couldn't comment but messaged the whole chunk of answers to my HP.
*laugh*
Just type lah!!!
Thanks Angela,
(1st come 1st served??) Laugh.. I came up with 2 answers, but since "Maid MUST be with the Dog", then i'll go for the 2nd answer.
1) Father send daughter over.
2) Mother send son over.
3) Mother send Father over
4) Mother come back & stayed, let Maid+Dog take the boat across
5) Father then take the boat back to fetch Mother
DONE!!
Uncle Mark Ong!!!!!
After your first line, its already wrong!
*laugh*
You see, the whole family is on one side of the river.
YOU SAID "1) Father send daughter over."
after that?
you expect the boat to row back to the other side of the river ON ITS OWN AH???!!!
*laugh*
so the link between 1) and 2) is wrong.....
*giggle*
Ok, Ok, must step by step, here goes little children, listen & watch carefully hor :
1) Father send daughter over, he rows back
2) Mother send son over, she rows back
3) Mother send Father over, she rows back
4) Mother stayed, Maid+Dog take the boat across(Maid rows of course)
5) Father rows the boat back to fetch Mother across
DONE *dirt* AGAIN !!
Mark,
*huge laugh*
YOU SAID: "2) Mother send son over, she rows back"
Meaning, the mother will see the daughter when she is on the other side without the Father around. Hence she will slap the daughter!!!
so wrong!
Sigh, been holding on to go toliet, keep answering "wrong". Since 2nd answer isnt correct, going for 1st :
1) Mother send Son over, she rows back
2) Father send Daughter over, he rows back
3) Father send Mother over, bring Daughter & row back
4) Maid & Dog rows over(Maid rows), Mother rows back
5) Father send Daughter over, he rows back
6) Father & Mother goes across together
DONE & DONE *dirt* ONCE AGAIN !!
Mark,
*huge huge laugh*
YOU SAID: "2)Father send Daughter over, he rows back"
Meaning, the Father will see the son when he is on the other side without the Mother around. Hence he will hit the son!!!

2) Maid send Son across, bring Dog back
3) Father send Mother across, Father row back
