You loan out one of the dogs and give it away for a week. Let's say it's a guard dog, and you charge $100/week. Then the dog is returned, and now you can repeat the process and make a handsome profit.

Two people are traveling across the country. They both leave from the same city, and both have the same final destination. They also both leave at the exact same day and time. One travels by bus, and the other by aircraft. However, the bus passenger arrives before the passenger on the aircraft.
How is this possible?

You have three jugs.
They can hold 12 liters, 8 liters, and 5 liters of milk respectively.
12-liter jug is full of milk,
the other two jugs are empty,
however you need to split the milk in half
i.e., into two portions of 6 liters each,
using only the jugs on hand.

How can you split up the milk?
to give away exactly 6 liters, and keep 6 liters?
