The way how the composer constructs this problem, is a BAD style grammar,
whose only goal is to confuse the reader.
The right place for such compositions is a trash bin.
As I know, there is a person / (a visitor) at this forum, who exercises in constructing confusing corrupted " problems ".
I would like to inform (to warn) this visitor, that in the future
I will delete such posts without explanations.
