Do you see the one pig in the middle? In order to separate hum from the other pigs, you're going to have to surround him with rope on all sides. Your three ropes need to be arranged in such a way that they surround and isolate the middle pig. | ||
*'''Hint 3''': Arrange your three ropes so that the little pig in the middle is surrounded completely. Next, look at how your ropes are laid out. You need to keep the middle pig surrounded, but you also need to separate the other pigs. There aren't many configurations that will satisfy those conditions, so you should have an answer before you know it. | *'''Hint 3''': Arrange your three ropes so that the little pig in the middle is surrounded completely.
