Let’s say the world has 1 woman interested in pursuing advertising and 5 men interested in pursuing advertising. On their first day on the job they come across a river too deep to wade across. They find a small canoe which can carry either one female CD or two male CDs. The canoe cannot hold one male and one female CD at the same time. They only have one canoe to transport the creative department across the river. Everyone can row the boat. How many one-way trips for all to cross the river?
