Emek and Luna hurried through the forest to reach a bridge before noon. At a signpost, they measured two trail sections using equal steps. The rocky trail was 46 steps long, while the pine trail was 38 steps long. The clock showed 11:30. "The pine trail is shorter," Luna said. Emek agreed. They followed the 38-step trail and reached the bridge before the clock struck 12:00.
