Question

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?

a) 60
b) 45
c) 30
d) 58​
