its at night there is a bridge and a bomb on it it takes 17 min to blow up. there is 4 people they need to cross over but each one has a specific time to cross: a man 1min a woman 2min a baby 5min and old guy 10min. there is only one flashlight and they must cross 2 by 2 so that the other one would come back with the flashlight. now how you calculate the time ex: if the man and the woman cross together they take 2min so you take the time of the longest time. watch out you should take into consideration that someone is going back with the flashlight so they also have there own time ok? remember 17 min till the bomb explodes and they all die. how are they going to cross?

I'll be interested to check later...
I'm tired, but as far as I can tell it's impossible, even if the man (1min) is the one bringing back the flashlight every time.
