Remember that, the tiger can kill the goat if not attended by the man, and the goat can eat the grass, when left alone.The man would have to carry the goat first and keep it on the other side (side B) of the river, as the tiger will 'definitely' not eat the grass, even if left alone on side A. After having done this, he will come back from side B, take the tiger from side A along with him and put it on side B. Now, while coming back again from side B, he will again carry the goat with him. This is because, if it is left alone on side B with the tiger, it will be killed. So, he will bring it back to side A, keep it and carry the grass to side B. Now, when he finally returns, he will carry the goat from side A to side B. All are safe and the job is done!

#26. This one is my favorite among all trick questions and answers. Imagine yourself driving on a highway on a windy day. Suddenly, you notice some people standing by the side of the road, and you slow down. You learn that the people include your best friend, an ailing old woman, and your dream girl. The ailing woman is dying and requires immediate medical help. Now, you have only one chance to spend a day with your dream girl, and of course you can't leave your best friend behind. So, what would you do in order to help the woman to reach the hospital? Remember that, your car can carry 'ONLY TWO' people (the driver and one passenger).Seems quite tricky right? Here is the answer... You ask your best friend to drive the woman to a hospital, and you spend the day with your dream girl! How's that?

#27. This one seems hard, but it's simple! There is a casino and it has 4 gates (let's name them as gate A, B, C and D). Every time you enter the casino, you have to pay $5 and every time you leave the casino, you again have to pay $5. Also know that, whatever amount of money you carry with you inside the casino, it doubles. For example if you carry $5, it will become $10. You have to go inside the casino through gate A, come out of B, again go inside the casino through gate C and finally come out of gate D. Now, how much money should you carry inside the casino so that when you finally come out of the gate D, you should be left with no money?Instead of guessing the amount of money, why don't we try solving this problem using algebra.

Let's say that the amount which you are carrying inside the casino is 'X'When you enter the casino through gate A, you spend $5, so the amount becomes (X - 5)This amount gets doubled inside the casino and becomes 2 (X - 5), i.e., 2X - 10Now, you make an exit through gate B and again pay $5. So, the amount which you have now becomes, (2X - 10 - 5), which is (2X - 15)Again, you enter the casino through gate C and spend $5. This makes the amount (2X - 15) to become (2X - 15 - 5), which is (2X - 20)Once when you are inside, the amount (2X - 20) again gets doubled, i.e. 2 (2X - 20) which is (4X - 40)This time, you will make your final exit through gate D and pay $5. So, this makes the amount (4X - 40 - 5), which is (4X - 45).

Now, the condition was that after you have completed the task, you should be left with zero money at the end. So, according to this, the remaining amount of money which you have now, i.e, (4X - 45 ) should be equal to 0.

So, when 4X - 45 = 0; 4X = 45; X = 45 4; X = 11.25

Hence, you should carry an amount of $11.25 inside the casino, so that you are left with no money at the end.Read more at Buzzle:http://www.buzzle.com/articles/trick-questions-and-answers.html
