There are five men that need to cross a rickety bridge at night. The bridge can only support two people at a time. There is a lantern but the lantern only has fuel for 30 seconds. Joe can cross the bridge in 1 second. Tom can cross the bridge in 3 seconds. Paul can cross the bridge in 6 seconds. Roger can cross the bridge in 8 seconds. Steve the slowest takes 12 seconds to cross.

Everyone needs to cross the bridge before the lantern runs out. When the people cross the bridge they only cross as fast as the slowest person crosses. So if Joe and Roger went across it would take 8 seconds for Roger and Joe to cross. If Joe and Roger crossed then Joe or Roger needs to return back to the starting side of the bridge with the lantern to light the way.
