PP28646. Let a, b be positive integers. A frog staying at point (a, b) of theplane may jump to point (a− b, b) if a > b or to point (a, b− a) if a < b. Forinstance a valid path for a frog starting at point (17, 12) is the following:(17, 12) → (5, 12) → (5, 7) → (5, 2) → (3, 2) → (1, 2) → (1, 1) Currently, thefrog is at point P (20172017, 123456). It is possible after some jumps to arriveat point (1, 1)?
