Riddle AnswerRoll Them Out
In a long, narrow chute there are 8 balls: 4 black ones on the left, and 4 white ones-slightly larger-on the right. In the middle of the chute there is a small niche that can hold 1 ball of either color. The chute’s right end has an opening large enough for a black but not a white ball.
Roll all the black balls out of the chute. You can’t pick them up from the chute.
