There was a farmer. Once he had to go across a river. There was no bridge. Only a small boat stood moored at the bank. The farmer had a lion, a bale of grass, and a goat to take along. The boat could not carry more than two individuals or items at a time. Thus, the farmer could take across only one of his animals or bale on one trip across. He faced a problem. If He took the lion across, the goat would eat the grass behind, and similarly, if he took the bale, the lion could eat the goat at this end. The same situation would arise on the other end. The farmer thought over it. At last, his intelligence found a solution.

He brought along the goat back, left it there, and went across with the bale of grass. He then came back and took the goat across. Thus, the save the situation and his three properties.
