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

Durov said on his Telegram channel today that the two and a half year blockchain and crypto project has been put to sleep. Ironically, after leaving Russia because the government wanted his encryption keys to his social media firm, Durov’s cryptocurrency idea lost steam because of a U.S. court. “The technology we created allowed for an open, free, decentralized exchange of value and ideas. TON had the potential to revolutionize how people store and transfer funds and information,” he wrote on his channel. “Unfortunately, a U.S. court stopped TON from happening.”
Newly uncovered hack campaign in Telegram
The campaign, which security firm Check Point has named Rampant Kitten, comprises two main components, one for Windows and the other for Android. Rampant Kitten’s objective is to steal Telegram messages, passwords, and two-factor authentication codes sent by SMS and then also take screenshots and record sounds within earshot of an infected phone, the researchers said in a post published on Friday.
