A problem of weight
In my neighbourhood lives a man who weighs 200 pounds. He has two sons. They both weigh 100 pounds each. On a festival day they decide to go across the river on a boat to visit some relations. But the boat could carry a maximum load of only 200 pounds. Yet they managed to get across the river by boat.
How did they ?

Kaustubh KatdareI think this is easy -
Let's say their names are A (200 pounds), B (100 pounds), C (100 pounds). Now to cross the river -
1. B & C cross the river: A || B,C
2. B comes back : A,B || C
3. A crosses the river B || A,C
4. C comes back: B,C || A
5. B & C cross the river: || A,B,C
Done -
