I think this one will be easy

If a kangaroo can jump 5 feet up in the air. And the kangaroo's height is 5 feet at its mouth, then how can it reach a branch on a tree that has its food that is 11 feet in the air.

BUT WAIT

The kangaroo cannot use its arms and cannot touch the tree except for the branch with the food.

GOOD LUCK!!!!

Use a ladder

Maybe it's mouth is 5 feet high with the Kangeroo's legs bent, when they kick in the air maybe his mouth will be at 6 or 7 feet high while his legs are still touching the ground

[Guest]

well dats very easy........kangaroo is 5ft upto its mouth,not to its head ...............

[Guest]

the problem is that it is will never reach it so i got some wild guesses:

- he/she (i'm no sexist) makes a salto and because of the force behind the spin the kangaroo is forced at least 1ft. up so he/she("") kicks the food of the branch

- he/she("") walks up the tree and than makes a jump for it (landing faceplant)

- he/she("") jumps the 10 ft. and than blows as hard as he/she ("") can so the food falls off the branch

How about it just stands tip toe and balances with it's tail?

A chainsaw to cut down the tree?

[Guest]

Perhaps the top of his head will reach 11 feet, so he can knock the fruit down that way. OR, he finds a one foot high rock and starts from there.

[Guest]

When it jumps its on its toes, and if its foot is a foot long then it will have a total height of 11 feet.

5ft jumps + 1 foot from toes to leg + 5 ft up to mouth

[Guest]

The kangaroo is standing on a hill next to the tree

[Guest]

the kangaroo's snout is 1 foot long, so he is able to tilt his head back to gain the extra foot of height.

...kangaroos climb trees

they are exceptional pugilists. so it threatened a wallaby to retrieve the food. (obviously missed that last bit of the OP with my previous response, oops)

1-the kangaroo drags a 1 ft rock beneath the tree and climbs on it and then jumps

2-the kangaroo can throw a stone on the food and catches it

3-since kangaroo can reach the branch with food,it shakes the branch and the food falls to the ground

Kangaroos eat grass which is plentiful on the ground, so why would he bother trying to reach the branch?
