The three volumes of a book sit in chronical order on a shelf. Each is 1¼ inches thick, comprising an inch of pages and ⅛ inch for each cover. A bookworm bores from page 1, volume I, to the last page of volume III. How far does it travel?
Ok see the first diagram in the attached picture, do you agree? Putting a book on the shelf, the first page will be on your right and the last page on your left. Good!
Now the books were arranged in chronological order (second diagram). The bookworm bores from page 1 of volume I to last page of volume III. You will agree with me that the last page of Volume III will be the first page the bookworm encounters in Volume III (remember last page is on the left and first page is on the right).
So what we are to find is X (from the second diagram).
X becomes: = One cover of Volume I + whole book of Volume II + one cover of Volume III = ⅛ inches + 1¼ inches + ⅛ inches = 1½ inches
Answer: 1½ inches

Like a stock, you can buy and hold Bitcoin as an investment. You can even now do so in special retirement accounts called Bitcoin IRAs. No matter where you choose to hold your Bitcoin, people’s philosophies on how to invest it vary: Some buy and hold long term, some buy and aim to sell after a price rally, and others bet on its price decreasing. Bitcoin’s price over time has experienced big price swings, going as low as $5,165 and as high as $28,990 in 2020 alone. “I think in some places, people might be using Bitcoin to pay for things, but the truth is that it’s an asset that looks like it’s going to be increasing in value relatively quickly for some time,” Marquez says. “So why would you sell something that’s going to be worth so much more next year than it is today? The majority of people that hold it are long-term investors.”
