The initial solution most people will think of is to use the fastest person as an usher to guide everyone across. How long would that take? 10 + 1 + 7 + 1 + 2 = 21 minutes. Is that it? No. That would make this question too simple even as a warm up question.

Let's brainstorm a little further. To reduce the amount of time, we should find a way for 10 and 7 to go together. If they cross together, then we need one of them to come back to get the others. That would not be ideal. How do we get around that? Maybe we can have 1 waiting on the other side to bring the torch back. Ahaa, we are getting closer. The fastest way to get 1 across and be back is to use 2 to usher 1 across. So let's put all this together.

1 and 2 go cross
2 comes back
7 and 10 go across
1 comes back
1 and 2 go across (done)

Total time = 2 + 2 + 10 + 1 + 2 = 17 minutes

Explanation
Assuming T1 is the Toy for brother1, T2 is the toy for brother2 and T3 is the toy for brother3.

Following are the possible cases for toys distribution:

Boy1 Boy2 Boy3
T1 T2 T3
T1 T3 T2
T2 T1 T3
T2 T3 T1 .... (A)
T3 T1 T2 .... (B)
T3 T2 T1

In both steps (A) & (B), no one gets the correct toy.
Therefore probability that none brother can get the own toy is 2/6 = 1/3
