Across The Lake
Riddle: 3 fishermen wanted to cross a lake. The problem was, there was one small rowboat that could only hold 100 pounds. One of the fisherman was 100 pounds, and the 2 others were 50 pounds. They also had to take 50 pounds of fish with them. It might seem impossible but by the end of the day, all three fisherman and fish were across the lake. How did they do it?
Answer: One of the 50 pound fisherman crossed with the fish, then came back to grab the other 50 pound fisherman. They crossed together, leaving the 100 pound man alone on the other side. One of the 2 fifty pound men came back to the 100 pound man and stayed there. The 100 pound man crossed the lake. Finally, the fifty pound man that is now next to the 100 pound man crosses to get the last fisherman and crosses one last time to the other side of the lake.
