Solve these riddles.

1. Why can’t a man living in Nigeria be buried in Ghana?

2. A girl was outside taking a walk when it started to rain. The girl didn’t have an umbrella and she wasn’t wearing a hat or scarf. Her clothes got soaked, yet not a single hair on her head got wet. How could this happen?

3. You leave home and go to your right. You reach a corner and turn left. You reach another corner and turn left again. You reach another corner and turn left again and go home. When you get there, there is a person with a mask there waiting for you. What’s happening?

4. Who makes it, has no need of it. Who buys it, has no use for it. Who uses it can neither see nor feel it. What is it?

5. How many of each species did Moses take on the ark with him?

6. A petri dish hosts a healthy colony of bacteria. Once a minute every bacterium divides into two. The colony was founded by a single cell at noon. At exactly 12:43 (43 minutes later) the petri dish was half full. At what time will the dish be completely full?

7. Before Mount Everest was discovered, what was the highest mountain in the world?
