A cargo ships engines failed 100 miles away from the port. Due to the changing wind direction, it is moving 12 miles towards the port and 6 miles away from the port. If the wind pattern remains same, how many miles it will travel before reaching the port?  Select: A) A - 179 B) B - 240 C) C - 280 D) D - 100 E) E - 155
Ships overall distance covered per cycle is +6 miles   take 100 - 6   take 94/6 to lowest divisible number - 90/6   This means that it will take 15 "overall" actions to reach the 90th mile. -15*18 miles added later   Set cycle start at 90. travel 10 miles and reach the anchor point - add 10 to total   15*18 + 10=
