Answer:

The farmer has to make 7 crossings to get everything across safely.

Explanation:

This is how the farmer must get everything across:

  1. The farmer takes the chicken to the far side and leaves him there.
  2. The farmer returns in an empty boat and collects the grain.
  3. Travelling again to the far side he deposits the grain & picks up the chicken to return to the near side.
  4. At the near side he deposits the chicken and collects the fox.
  5. At the far side he leaves the fox and grain together.
  6. He returns with an empty boat and collects the chicken.
  7. He travels to the far side with himself and the chicken.

This makes 7 crossings total.

Hope it helps!
