in 5 steps, the sector rotates 375�; which puts it 15� out of sync

each additional 5 steps rotates the sector 375� and puts it another 15� out of sync

after 5 rotations (25 steps), the sector is 75� out of sync; which means one step back puts it in sync

so, 24 steps

If the sector goes around the circle 5 times, the leading edge
will be degrees ahead of where it started
With this position as a starting point, if the sector goes around
the circle 5 more times, the leading edge will now be 30 degrees
ahead of it's starting point.
, so the sector needs to go around the circle
times to end up back where it started
