found it! turns out it wasnt a rescue but rather the lamp can only last for a limited time.

The family needs to cross the bridge. It is night and dark. They got a lamp. Maximum of two persons can cross the bridge at a time and they must have the lamp with them. Each person walks in different speed. A pair must walk together at the rate of the slower person. The lamp is enough for 30 seconds only. How are we going to help them?

there are 5 of them with speeds 1sec, 3secs, 6secs, 8secs and 12 secs

pretty easy to solve if youve solved the one above

They can do it in exactly 29 seconds. Ima leavin the math for others.

Are you an enemy?

Yippee!!! I thought no one would be able to solve it...Confused
How was i close??


Well, it's hard to say, but it's more the way you work it out...

What's brown and sticky?


RE: Riddles! - Wildt4lon - 05-03-2013 06:12 AM

A stick.


RE: Riddles! - TheGreatErenan - 05-03-2013 06:22 AM

Yeah, here's another:

Which weighs more? A pound of feathers or a pound of gold?


RE: Riddles! - Gf!sh - 05-03-2013 06:23 AM

They both weigh a pound.


RE: Riddles! - TheGreatErenan - 05-03-2013 06:27 AM

Well, which is heavier?


RE: Riddles! - TheQwertiest - 05-03-2013 06:38 AM

they both weigh the same. a pound. so why would one be heavier than the other?
