Theres a similar question in one of the tests I made for Velmont, Blue and Gunter, it was for an experiment I was conducting on streetsmarts:
"You are driving your car at night, and it is storming. Your car breaks down near the woods. You get hungry, so you take out an umbrella, and walk into the woods to find help. You find an old cabin, and decide to stay there for shelter. you open the door, it's cold, dark, dusty, and you are freezing. You try the lights- but there doesn't seem to be any electricity. You find a candle, and old Gas lamp, a fireplace, and a stove. You open the matchbox, but find only one match. In order to survive, What will you light first? Think Wisely."
Try to answer it, then give me your reasons.
Their answers:
Gun: The stove! Cuz it's warm- then you can cook some food!
Vel: The Fireplace, then you can light the candle, then the lamp, then the stove. Easy.
Blue: The candle, because it's the easiest to light. Then you can light the fireplace, and then the stove- and then the lamp. Now where do you sleep?
What's Your answer?
