By imitating the voices of the trolls, Gandalf managed to make the trolls fight among themselves. This went on so long until the sunlight surprised the trolls; converting them into stone. The trolls were supposed to seek refuge in some cave or something, before sunrise.

How does Gandalf save Bilbo and the dwarves from the Goblins?

After escaping the Goblins initially during the first attack, he follows the Goblins and their captives to the Goblintown.

What behavior of the trolls caused their downfall in the hobbit?

After they caught Bilbo, the dwarves came looking for him. As they got around the fire the trolls popped a sack over their heads. It all started when they caught Bilbo.

Then they hid behind the trees out of the light and waited for the other dwarves, who they promptly caught in a sack.


How does Gandalf use his powers on Bert tom and willaim?

He really doesn't use any powers on the trolls. He does throw his voice. He used it to create an argument among them, that distracted them so that they didn't notice the rising sun.
