Climbing Problem of Creepers

Email This Post Email This Post

Two creepers, one jasmine and the other rose, are both climbing up and round a cylindrical tree trunk. The jasmine twists clockwise and the rose anti-clockwise, and they both start at the same point on the ground. Before they reach the first branch on the tree the jasmine has made 5 complete twists and the rose 3 twists. Not counting the bottom and the top, how many times do they cross?
