There's a frog at the bottom of a 30-foot well. The frog will rise 3 feet in the morning & would slid down 2 feet in the evening. If the frog will start on February 1, what date will it reach the top?

If it goes up 3 feet then slides down 2 feet, then it goes up 1 foot a day, so it would take 30 days to get up to the top
