Gollum asked several riddles. Here they are:

  • What has roots as nobody sees, is taller than trees, up, up it goes and yet never grows?

Answer: A Mountain.

  • Voiceless it cries, wingless flutters, toothless bites, mouthless mutters.

Answer: The Wind

  • It cannot be seen, cannot be felt,

    Cannot be heard, cannot be smelt. It lies behind stars and under hills, and empty holes it fills. it comes first and follows after, ends life, kills laughter.

Answer: The Dark

  • Alive without breath, as cold as death; never thirsty, ever drinking, all in mail never clinking.

Answer: A Fish

  • This thing all things devours: Birds, beasts, trees, flowers; gnaws iron, bites steel; grinds hard stones to meal; slays king, ruins town and beats high mountain down.

The answer to the Gollum's final riddle is "time." Bilbo stumbles upon this answer when, pressed hard by Gollum to procure an answer to the riddle, Bilbo unwittingly answers the question correctly in asking for more "time" to think.
