Answer:

On the 9th day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Climbs up by 5 feet and climbs down by 3 feet everyday. Net climb = 5+ (-3) = 2 feet

Since climbing up is done first, on the last day of climb it will climb 5 feet and reach the top and will not climb down becase it has reached the top. Therefore, by the time before te last day, it should have climbed = 21 - 5 = 16 feet through climbing up ad down.

now by climbing up and down,

on net basis, 2 feet is covered in 1 day

1 feet is covered in 1/2 days

16 feet is covered in 1/2*16 = 8 days.

This 8 days and the last day when it climbs the last 5 feet makes it a total of 8+1 = 9 days to climb.

Answer: 9 days.
