There are two types of trucks that use a particular highway section,
Truck A and Truck B. Every year, 1 million trucks pass through the
highway section of which 40% are truck type A and the remaining
60% are of truck type B. If 10 million repetitions of Truck A causes

complete failue, how long would the pavement last?
