Oops i see where I went wrong with the maths one.

new answer i get is 312211

Here are some riddels, well quite a few actually. I've posted the first one ages ago and a few people got it.

1.
I run and run, but I can not hide
I am often watched, but never seen
If I am too slow I bring boredom, but if I am too quick I bring fear
What am I?


2.
I am the ruler of shovels
I have a double
I am as thin as a knife
I have a wife
What am I?


3.
Can you name three consecutive days without using the words Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday?


4.
I can sizzle like bacon,
I am made with an egg,
I have plenty of backbone, but lack a good leg,
I peel layers like onions, but still remain whole,
I can be long, like a flagpole, yet fit in a hole,
What am I?


5.
Only one color, but not one size,
Stuck at the bottom, yet easily flies.
Present in sun, but not in rain,
Doing no harm, and feeling no pain.
What am I?


6.
They call me a man, but I'll never have a wife.
I was given a body, but not given life.
They made me a mouth, but didn't give me breath.
Water gives me life and sun brings me death.
What am I?


7.
My life can be measured in hours, I serve by being devoured.
Thin, I am quick,
Fat, I am slow,
Wind is my foe.
What am I?


8.
Pronounced as one letter,
But look and you'll see,
That really I'm written with three.
I'm read from both ends,
The same either way.
What am I?


9.
As I was going to St. Ives,
I met a man who had seven wives.
Each wife had seven sacks,
Each sack had seven cats,
Each cat had seven kits.
Kits, cats, sacks and wives,
How many were going to St. Ives?


10.
A beggar's brother went out to sea and drowned.
But the man who drowned had no brother.
What was the relationship between the man who drowned and the beggar?


11.
If a man carried my burden,
He would break his back.
I am not rich,
But leave silver in my track.


I'll be VERY impressed if anybody can get all of these.
