Are you clever? - Simple Logic!

A farmer has a chicken, a bag of chicken feed, and a fox.

He needs to get across the river with all three items. However, the small boat he has only allows him to carry one item across at a time.

He can't leave the chicken with the feed because he will eat it. Likewise, he can't leave the fox with the chicken because he will eat him.

How can the perplexed farmer get all three across successfully?

Steps: [From side A to side B]

1) Take chicken from side A to side B. [Fox will not eat chicken feed]

2) Take fox to side B and bring back the chicken to side A [Fox will be alone on side B]

3) Keep chicken on side A and take chicken feed to side B [Fox and Chicken feed on side B, fox will not eat chicken feed]

4) Now take chicken from side A to side B
