Rungs on the Ship
You are on a ship, over the side hangs a rope ladder with half meter rungs. The tide rises a half meter per hour. At the end of five hours, how much of the ladder will remain above the water assuming that nine rungs were above the water when the tide began to rise?
(The folks who hate math are going to start throwing rotten tomatoes at me!! lol)

I'm pretty sure it's 4 rungs... unless I made some really stupid error... @-@ My math teacher would kill me!
((Thank Goddess, I thought this thread was going to die! Yay, Rev for saving it!))

While I am discouraged by my earlier blunder (and subsequent beating with a textbook by my math teacher), I shall take a crack at this one! Wouldn't it work if they were back to back?

FYI.....there would be 9 rungs showing because as the water level rose, so would the ship. It was a trick question LOL

Ok you guys i have one so i hope you answer it b/c it looks like no one has posted in a while.
"First think of a person who lives in disguise,
Who deals in secrets and tells naught but lies.
Next, what is always the last thing to mend,
The middle of middle and the end of end?
Finally give me the sound people make when
searching for a hard-to-find word.
String them altogether and what do you get.
(btw Revkeltina I knew the answer to the riddly about the ship. I was asked that same riddle in my math class and no one got it the teacher rofl all hour.
