Q7) A monk has a very specific ritual for climbing up the steps to the temple. First he climbs up

to the middle step and meditates for 1 minute. Then he climbs up 8 steps and faces east until he
hears a bird singing. Then he walks down 12 steps and picks up a pebble. He takes one step up
and tosses the pebble over his left shoulder. Now, he walks up the remaining steps three at a
time which only takes him 9 paces. How many steps are there?
