Problem Statement
Mater is confused and starts going around the track in the wrong direction. He can go around 7 times in an hour. Lightning and Chick start in the same place at Mater and at the same time, both going the correct direction. Lightning can go around 91 times per hour, while Chick can go around 84 times per hour. When Lightning passes Chick for the third time, how many times will he have passed Mater (if Lightning is passing Mater just as he passes Chick for the third time, count this as passing Mater)?Proposed by Matthew Weiss
