What is the answer to "the more you take from it, the bigger it gets"?

The answer is a hole. The more dirt you take out of it, the bigger the hole becomes.

Why is a hole the answer to this riddle?

A hole is defined by what is missing. Every time you remove more soil, sand or material, the empty space grows larger, so taking from it makes it bigger.

Is this an easy riddle?

Yes, it is an easy logic riddle, but the wording is a trap. People look for something physical that grows when added to, not something defined by removal.
