How many manhole covers on UK roads?
There are at least as many covers as there are finished manholes. Most manholes are already covered, and there are covers in stock ready to replace them, and covers in the factory ready to ship out. Unfinished manholes are relatively rare, but safety practices would probably require that random holes in a construction site should be covered by something. If you knew the proportion of unfinished manholes to stored and unused covers, you might be confident enough to boil it down to "There are at least as many covers as there are manholes."
