Amar, Akbar and Anthony are playing a game. Amar climbs 5 stairs and gets down 2 stairs in one turn. Akbar goes up by 7 stairs and comes down by 2 stairs every time. Anthony goes 10 stairs up and 3 stairs down each time. Doing this they have to reach to the nearest point of 100th stairs and they will stop once they find it impossible to go forward. (They have less number of stairs than required forward stairs).
Who reaches the nearest point?

Options

A. Amar
B. Akbar
C. Anthony
D. All together reach to the nearest point.

Answer

B

Explanation

Amar will reach up to 93 steps then he will go for 5 steps up and 2 steps down hence covering 96 steps. Since 100 th step is final, so he will not cover more steps. Akbar will reach up to 95 steps, since 100 th step is final, so he will not cover more steps. Anthony will reach up to 91 steps, since 100 th step is final, so she will not cover more steps. Thus akbar reaches the nearest point.
Thus (b) is correct option.
