Re: A frog located at (0, 0) makes successive jumps of length 5 units and [#permalink]
curious too. I guessed and got B, maybe the idea is that the frog can jump alternatively between 0,0 and 0,1 hence the first jump is the smallest jump. reply to me if someone posts, please! Thanks

Carcass, please guide why my logic is wrong:

I interpretted the question that the frog can jump 5 units but only ends up landing on (1,0). Now let the number of jumps = x, then we can set up the equation: (5)*x = 1 [since, (0,0) and (1,0) are 1 unit away]. So, x = 1/5. The frog didn't even need a full jump, so B is the greater quantitiy.
