    A travelled from North to South at 6km/hr. B travelled from South to North at 4km/hr. When A and B meet, who is closer to the North?

    They're at the same place, so they're equidistant to the north.

    Add 1 line to make the equation true:
    5+5+5+5 = 555

    P.S. You cannot cancel the equal sign.

    Can't understand this riddle's answer. Can someone help?
    Why are manhole covers round?
    Ans: If you put a square cover on a manhole at the wrong angle, it will immediately fall down. This will not happen with a round cover.
    My reaction: Isn't there square manholes and square covers nowadays?
