Hungry Elephant


This one is easy and most famous puzzle.
But I have a doubt here which I would post later after getting answers .

There are 2 cities A and B, distance between them is 1000 Km.
we have 3000 bananas in city A and a elephant
can carry max 1000 bananas at any given time and it needs to eat a banana every 1 Km.

How Many Max. No. of bananas you can transfer to city B ?.
