Re: Riddles

This is a really old riddle, maybe some of you older members will remember it. And possibly, some of you younger members will solve it.

What is black,
And what is white.
And it's red all over??
This one should be easy for some of you guys.

Re: Riddles

there is a rope ladder hanging down the side of boat, each rung is .5m apart. As the tide comes in the water rises 1.75 m per hour, if the ladder originally started with 17 rungs above the water at low tide, how many rungs will not be submerged in 3.5 hours?
