  • Paper
  • Answer

A frog is placed at the origin on the number line, and moves according to the following rule: in a given move, the frog advances to either the closest point with a greater integer coordinate that is a multiple of 3, or to the closest point with a greater integer coordinate that is a multiple of 13. A move sequence is a sequence of coordinates that correspond to valid moves, beginning with 0 and ending with 39. For example, 0, 3, 6, 13, 15, 26, 390,\ 3,\ 6,\ 13,\ 15,\ 26,\ 39 is a move sequence. How many move sequences are possible for the frog?
