How many steps are in the movement plan?

• A. 11
• B. 9
• C. 13
• D. 7

Answer: (A)

Count the plan by listing every concrete action you must perform in order from start to finish. Each imperative instruction that moves you or changes your setup is a separate step. If a single line asks you to do two actions in sequence, count them as two steps. If a line only states a decision or a non-action goal, don’t count it as a step. When you apply this to the movement plan, you end up with eleven distinct actions in the required sequence, which is why eleven is the number chosen. If you ever counted differently, check whether a combined line should be split into separate steps or a line should be treated as a single action.
