in an interview some interviewer may ask you this kind of question. why are manhole covers relly round.. not square nor triangle. this may give you a hard time to answer. well some may say that manhole covers are round because most equipments are more easier to fit in, in that kind of shape. some may say that its because manhole has that word hole because HOLES are circles thats why the civer should be round

Manholes are covered rounds since they cannot be called manholes if they are not round. Holes are round thats why it is round. lol. so grammatically wrong. Manholes are covered that shape since it is safer because it does not have edges or sharp edges that will cause accident or anything destructive.That makes manholes covered round...keep blogging and enjoying.
