The answer to today's Riddle is -

1. Answer: Eat becomes Ate
2. Eight hours. It takes twice as long to double the length, twice
as long to double the width, and twice as long to double the depth.
To find cubic measurement you multiply length x width x height;
therefore, on the first hole, one hour equals 2 m x 2 m x 2 m or
8 cubic meters. On the second hole, the formula is 4 m x 4 x 4 m
or 64 cubic meters.
