How would you answer this job interview question?

I was asked this question recently. Any clever way to answer this? You could say prioritize and complete some tasks fully, try to do all but not fully completed, etc. But that is not very original. Could have answered to involve others to help, but not sure that would work. Any good answers to this one?

If you have five tasks of equal importance, and only have half the time needed to complete them 100%, how would you solve this?
