Four men want to cross a bridge. They all begin on the same side. It is night, and they have only one flashlight with them. At most two men can cross the bridge at a time, and any party who crosses, either one or two people, must have the flashlight with them.
The flashlight must be walked back and forth: it cannot be thrown, etc. Each man walks at a different speed. A pair must walk together at the speed of the slower man. Man 1 needs 1 minute to cross the bridge, man 2 needs 2 minutes, man 3 needs 5 minutes, and man 4 needs 10 minutes. For example, if man 1 and man 3 walk across together, they need 5 minutes.
What is the minimum time required for all of them to cross the bridge?

arjun - is it 17 minutes?
Man 1 & 2 go across takes 2 min
Man 2 comes back takes 2 min
Man 3 & 4 go across takes 10 min
Man 1 comes back takes 1 min
Man 1 & 2 go across...takes 2 min.......

adding the time taken = 2+2+10+1+2=17

Here's the next one:
A is as old as B will be when A is twice as old as B was when A's age was half the sum of their present ages.

B is as old as A was when B was half the age he will be 10 years from now.

The Question: How old are A and B?
