While exploring a jungle, Emek and Luna noticed a trail of animal footprints in the mud. The prints repeated in a simple pattern: paw, paw, hoof, paw, paw, hoof. They realized the same three-print pattern continued along the path. By predicting the next footprints before they appeared, they followed the correct trail instead of a nearby path with different tracks. Soon, they heard rushing water and safely reached a beautiful hidden waterfall, proud that recognizing the pattern had guided their adventure.

Hint
Each repeating group has one hoof print.
The repeating pattern is paw, paw, hoof. If the pattern repeats 5 times, how many hoof prints are there altogether?
Correct! There is one hoof print in each group, so there are 5 hoof prints.
Count how many hoof prints appear in one repeating group, then multiply by the number of groups.
