It is possible that some of you may have seen similar puzzles. This is actually quite popular. I saw it somewhere and liked it very much. Let's see who can solve this.

The following 5 people went to meet lucid in giga's car.

1-sims

2-giga

3-pranay

4-soda

5-connor

Soda traded giga's car with lucid for removing his isp vio.

Now they all need to get back to connor's place. Only mode of transport is pranay's bicycle that they carried in giga's car while travelling.

The bicycle can carry only two people at a time. The speed of the bicycle depends on the weight of the heavier person. So if two people are going on it, the speed will be same as the speed when the heavier person is cycling alone.

Following are the speed based on their weights

1- sims takes 1 minute to ride one way

2- giga takes 3 minutes

3- pranay takes 6 minutes

4- soda takes 8 minutes

5- connor takes 12 minutes

So if connor and sims travel together, it will take 12 minutes for one way and one of them has to return with the bicycle to pick others. So if sims returns, it will take 1 minute for him and thus a total of 13 minutes for sims to drop connor and come back for others.

Kerry has given these 5 people a time limit if 30 minutes.

Please tell them what sequence they should follow so that everybody reaches there in 30 minutes and using just the bicycle.

Those who have solved this before please don't ruin it for others.

PM me if you want the solution.

there is no difference or trick in saying 30 instead of 29 other than momentarily confusing the people who solve your dumb riddle. if you had not said a limit it would have made a difference, but since you did say one you might as well have given people the actual limit.

FYI- when loreli says she did it in 5 minutes, it does not mean that the entire sequence can be completed in 5 minutes. She means to say that she solved the puzzle and it took 5 minutes of her time to arrive at the solution. Please do not stress yourself to try and reach everyone home in 5 minutes.
