There are 8 aple in the basket, and there is one aple out of the basket. One girl take the aple not from the basket.
Concider this Nope there are only 8 apples, and they are all in the basket. Each of 8 girls takes one, yet there is one apple still in the basket? HOW?

Perhaps this is an old puzzle... How to cross a goat, a tiger, and a basket of grass over the river. There is a small boat to across, You only can bring one item at once. If you leave goat and tiger alone, to cross grass, the tiger will eat the goat. If you leave the goat an grass alone to cross tiger, the goat will eat grass. [Goat] | river | [Tiger] [You] |[Boat] | destination [Grass] | | How's the sequence to bring all to the destination safely?
Take the goat across leaving him on the other side. Go back and get the grass taking it to the other side. Bring the goat back with you to the side with the tiger. Take the tiger across (assuming he doesn't eat your behindPlease Register or Log in to view the hidden image!) and leave him with the grass.
