You have a fox, a chicken and a sack of grain. You must cross a river with only one of them at a time. If you leave the fox with the chicken he will eat it; if you leave the chicken with the grain he will eat it. How can you get all three across safely?
Take the chicken over first. Go back and bring the grain next, but instead of leaving the chicken with the grain, come back with the chicken. Leave the chicken on the first side and take the fox with you. Leave it on the other side with the grain. Finally, go back over and get the chicken and bring it over.

You bring the chicken over.
Then
Go back for the wheat.
Drop the wheat off and bring back then chicken.
Then leave the chicken on the original side n pick up the Fox. Drop the Fox off.
Then go back for the chicken duh.
