Lucie has a friend named Brandon. Each of Lucie's steps are two times smaller then Brandon's steps. Brandon's father is a pirate, and he hides his treasure in a treasure chest. One day, Lucie finds the map, and follows the order. It said, "From the start of the house, move ten steps forward. Then, turn left and move another ten steps forward. That is where the treasure is." So, Lucie gets the shovel and follows the instructions. She digs and digs, but after and hour she found no treasure. One day, Brandon also found the map and followed the instructions. The second he started to dig though, he found the treasure. How?

Brandon's steps were twice as long as Lucie's. Therefore, when Lucie moved ten steps forward, Brandon moved twenty steps forward. Because the map said to move ten steps forward and then turn left and move another ten steps forward, Brandon was already at the spot where the treasure was located.
