1I'll slash the farmer's sack from the bottom! [9]
A poor farmer went to a market to sell some pea and lentil, however as he had only one sack and
didn't want to mix peas and lentils, he poured in the sack the peas at first, bound the sack up and than
poured in the lentils. At the market a rich innkeeper wanted to buy the peas, but he did not want the
lentils.
How would you solve this problem if you had only the sack of innkeeper, which he wants to keep with himself. The sack cannot be bound in a longitudinal way.
(without devaluing the goods).

21Pour the lentils into the innkeeper’s sack, bind it and turn inside out. Pour in the peas. Then unbind the sack a pour the lentils back to your sack.
