Achilles was not fond of the way Xeno reported his race against the tortoise, so he asked Xeno to rewrite the riddle.
Xeno was convinced to give Achilles a headstart this time, but he changed the conditions of the race. For starters, he brought in a giant tortoise from the Galapagos Islands.
Achilles had a headstart of twenty-seven steps, and for every eight steps he took, the tortoise only took five. However, the tortoise had a larger gait than Achilles, so every two steps it took was equivalent to every five steps Achilles took.
How many steps did it take the tortoise to get to Achilles?
