I could not resist checking this question. 😂 That will be one hungry monkey at the end of those 30 days… or is it not 30? 😉
What about the monkey height? Is it a short monkey or a tall monkey? How high can it jump?

Hahaha. Yes, it's a funny yet interesting problem definitely. And it's one slippery well for sure! The hungry monkey thing cracked me up.
