Journey to school

On the way to school, I took a steady step. In the first half of the journey, I counted every second step, and in the second half, every third. How many steps did I take when I went to school? If I counted, double steps are 250 more than three steps?

Final Answer:

n =  3000

Step-by-step explanation:

2a = 3b a = 250 + b  3b/2=250+b  3 b/2=250+b  b=500  b=1500=500  b=500  a=250+b=250+500=750  n=2 a+3 b=2 750+3 500=3000
