The water cycle is a term for the movement of water between the Earth's surface, the sky and underground. Water evaporates due to heat from the sun. Hence, the water cycle is driven primarily by the energy from the sun.

This solar energy drives the cycle by evaporating water from the oceans, lakes, rivers, and even the soil. Other water moves from plants to the atmosphere through the process of transpiration.

A computer program is a set of instructions i.e algorithm that are to be executed to complete a task.

We can make an equation:

3(100000 + x) = 10x+1

(Why? Well, adding 100000 puts a 1 at the front of a five-digit number, and multiplying by 10 and adding 1 puts a 1 at the end of a number)

Solving this gives:

10x+1 = 3(100000 + x)
10x+1 = 300000 + 3x
10x = 299999 + 3x
7x = 299999
x = 299999/7 = 42857

The answer is 42857 (142857 is three times smaller than 428571).
