A man has a wolf, a goat, and a cabbage. He must cross a river with the two animals and the cabbage. There is a small rowing boat, in which he can take only one thing with him at a time. If, however, the wolf and the goat are left alone, the wolf will eat the goat. If the goat and the cabbage are left alone, the goat will eat the cabbage. How can the man get across the river with the two animals and the cabbage?
He will first take the goat to the other side ,then he will come back take the wolf and bring the goat back ,next he will take the cabbage and last he will take the goat back again to the other side.

The goat will eat the cabbage and then the wolf will eat the goat .Finally the man will cross the river with only the wolf in the small rowing boat.
The man will take the goat and leave and cabbage and wolf behind and will go back to bring the cabbage to the other side he will bring back the goat with him because in the mean time the goat will eat the cabbage then he goes to the other side and brings the wolf and finally brings the goat to the other side.

He will take the goat first now the wolf is left with the cabbage and every one knows that wolfs do not eat cabbage, then he takes the wolf to the other side and brings the goat back. Then he takes the cabbage and drops it to the other side. Now he takes the goat and drops him to the other side .Now he has all three with him on the other side

First the man will cross the river with the wolf,then the cabbage and lastly he will carry the goat across.Since the wolf is a carnivores he will not eat the cabbage when the man goes to bring the goat.

First the man will take the cabbage to the other side then the man will take the wolf the other side (the wolf won't eat the cabbage) then the man will take the goat and after that the man will be with those two animals and cabbage so the man will not let the wolf get the goat and that way all of them can go back without being eaten.

no jashan,their asking how would the man cross with all the animals
Farmer takes Goat across (leaving Wolf and Cabbage behind)
Farmer returns alone
Farmer takes Wolf across
Farmer returns with Goat
* We now have the Farmer, the Cabbage and the Goat on one side and the Wolf on the other side
Farmer takes Cabbage across
Farmer returns alone
Farmer takes Goat across

I think he has to take the goat from side A to side B. Then he has to come back alone to side A and take the cabbage to side B. Now he has to take the goat back from side B and keep it on side A. Then he has to take the wolf from side A to the other side . Now the wolf and the cabbage are on side B. He can come back now to side A, collect the goat and take it to side B. Finally, now all of them are on side B. Hurray.....

It's interdependence because the wolf is dependent on the goat for meat.
