Can You Solve The Band Around The Earth Logic Puzzle by Nobody: 8:48am On Dec 13, 2017
Here is the puzzle

Someone made a band that stretches around the Earth's circumference (which is about 40,000 km) in a perfect circle. One day, someone added 10 m to the band. With this added slack, the band now magically sits just above the ground, still containing the Earth in a perfect circle. How far is the band off the ground?
