Problem Statement

Points AA, BB, and CC lie in that order along a straight path where the distance from AA to CC is 18001800 meters. Ina runs twice as fast as Eve, and Paul runs twice as fast as Ina. The three runners start running at the same time with Ina starting at AA and running toward CC, Paul starting at BB and running toward CC, and Eve starting at CC and running toward AA. When Paul meets Eve, he turns around and runs toward AA. Paul and Ina both arrive at BB at the same time. Find the number of meters from AA to BB.
