3 explorers are shipwrecked on a desert island with 3 Zulu warriors. All are starving & must get back to the mainland for food. the Zulus would like to eat the explorers, but as long as there are 3 each, the explorers are safe. As long as they keep an equal division of numbers the explorers are safe. There is 1 boat & 1 pair of oars which carries only 2 people at a time. All explorers can row, but only 1 Zulu can row. The problem is for all the explorers to reach the mainland in the only boat on hand without leaving any of them out numbered by the Zulus at any time; that is, 1 explorer must not be left with 2 Zulus, nor 2 explorers with 3 Zulus on either side of the water. :cry:
Thanks
