Two fathers and two sons went fishing one day. They were there the whole day and only caught 3 fish. One father said, that is enough for all of us, we will have one each. How can this be possible?
There was the father, his son, and his son's son. This equals 2 fathers and 2 sons for a total of 3!

If you're 8 feet away from a door and with each move you advance half the distance to the door. How many moves will it take to reach the door?
