Riddle:
Start at one and add one forever; I grow but never end. What am I?
Answer: Infinity. It’s the process of counting: start at 1, then keep adding 1—2, 3, 4, and so on—without stopping. The total “grows” because the number increases, but it “never ends” because there’s no largest number; you can always add one more. Infinity is not a specific number, but rather a concept representing something without any bound or end, perfectly matching the description in the riddle.
Riddle:
I can be shouted to claim, dug for riches, or buried to maim, three meanings packed in one short word. What am I?
Answer: Mine.
“Mine” carries three distinct meanings that match each clue: Shouted to claim: someone yells “Mine!” to assert ownership. Dug for riches: a mine is a place where minerals, coal, or gems are extracted. Buried to maim: a land mine is an explosive device concealed underground. The riddle packs these homonyms into one word, making “mine” the perfect answer.
Riddle:
I am between things; in teeth, in time, in fences; I can be wide or tiny. What am I?
Answer: Gap. It’s pointing to “gap” because a gap is the space between things. In teeth: a diastema is the gap between teeth. In time: a time gap is the interval between events. In fences: gaps are openings between slats or posts. “Wide or tiny” fits because gaps can vary in size. So the riddle lists places where “a space between” shows up, and “gap” is the common thread.
Riddle:
I follow soap to clear its trace, I wash away what suds embrace. What am I?
Answer: Water. Water is used to rinse away suds and residue after using soap.
