Question 274302: Aji has an argument with his daughter. She says, "you do the same thing every day." Aji does fishing every day but contends that every day is different because he does things in a different order each day.
Before he leaves shore in his row boat,
3 things
he gets fresh bait, checks the weather, and adjusts his seat cushion.
Out in the water,
4 things
he eats his fruit, puts meat on his sandwich, drinks his apple juice, and eats his sandwich.
Back at shore,
3 things
after tying his boat to the dock, he puts up the fishing pole in his right hand and the ice chest in his left hand.
Then he finally heads back home to have the same argument with his daughter. For how many days could Aji do things in a different order before he has to repeat the order of some prior day?
