A Mathematician is given a psychological test.

The first question asked "You see a burning house and a hose disconnected from a fire hydrant. What do you do?"

After much deliberation, the Mathematician decides he would attach the hose to the hydrant.

He is then asked "You see a non-burning house and a hose disconnected from a fire hydrant. What do you do?"

To which the Mathematician immediately responds,
Spoiler:
"I'll set the house of fire to reduce this to a problem I've already solved."
