monkey takes 1hr for overall 1mt.....
so if we consider the 20th hour he will be jumping from 20 to 23mts...and back to 21mts...and according to the question it is only 20mts....now if we consider 17th hour he will be jumping from 17 to 20mts ...which is the given height...to be exact the answer is 18hrs....to be precise the answer is between 17 and 18hrs..cuz we dont know d time taken for slip...
