nurkvinny Posted April 30, 2006 Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 A boat has a ladder that has six rungs, each rung is one foot apart. The bottom rung is one foot from the water. The tide rises at 12 inches every 15 minutes. High tide peaks in one hour. When the tide is at its highest, how many rungs are under water? ................... Think of words ending in 'gry'. Angry and hungry are two of them. There are only three words in the English language. What is the third word? The word is something that everyone uses every day. If you have read this very carefully, I have already told you what it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
