Problem
Alice and Bob play a game involving a circle whose circumference is divided by 12 equally-spaced points. The points are numbered clockwise, from 1 to 12. Both start on point 12. Alice moves clockwise and Bob, counterclockwise. In a turn of the game, Alice moves 5 points clockwise and Bob moves 9 points counterclockwise. The game ends when they stop on the same point. How many turns will this take?
$\textbf{(A)}\ 6\qquad\textbf{(B)}\ 8\qquad\textbf{(C)}\ 12\qquad\textbf{(D)}\ 14\qquad\textbf{(E)}\ 24$
Solution
Alice moves $5k$ steps and Bob moves $9k$ steps, where $k$ is the turn they are on. Alice and Bob coincide when the number of steps they move collectively, $14k$, is a multiple of $12$. Since this number must be a multiple of $12$, as stated in the previous sentence, $14$ has a factor $2$, $k$ must have a factor of $6$. The smallest number of turns that is a multiple of $6$ is $\boxed{\textbf{(A)}\ 6}$.

He has insurance in case of an accident.
Insurance, in legal and financial terms, is a form of risk management, used primarily to protect against the risk of potential financial losses.
Ideally, it is defined as the fair transfer of risk of potential loss from one entity to another in exchange for a reasonable fee. In practice, however, the insurance protection business often results in litigation between the parties concerned.
Generally, it is a contract in which one party agrees to pay for the financial losses of another party as a result of a specified event.
