Just A Question People Can Discuss On...
There are 3 humans and 3 ghosts on the right side of a river. A boat with two seats is anchored on the right side. With the most simple way, transport all 3 humans and ghosts onto the left side. There are 3 simple rules.
First, if there are more ghosts than humans on any side of the river, the ghosts will eat the humans something you definitely don't want. Also, another thing people get confused at is that if humans and ghosts are the same amount, the humans remain UNHARMED!
Second, don't be fooled by the boats. For example, if a human rides the boat to the left side of the river, he counts as the amount of people on the left side. In other words, if the boat is transported to any side, anyone inside must get out of the boat before you make your next move.
Third, the boat CANNOT move by itself. It must be transported by a human or ghost in order to move to the other side.
Good Luck =)
