If you had only one match and entered a dark room containing an oil lamp, some kindling wood, and a newspaper, which would you light first?

Question

Answer

The match.

Answer

Once the match is lit, I would try to light the kindling, because the match might die while I try to light the oil lamp. Kindling usually burns easily and it will burn longer than the match. Then I will use the kindling to light the oil lamp. Finally, I will read the newspaper. :P

Answer

I'd light the oil lamp first because it'd help me light the newspaper and kindling wood if need be.

Answer

Well, i guess i would put a match to the newspaper first
