In a small city, there is only one tram line. It is a circular route, and trams run in both directions. On the circle, there are stops Circus, Park, and Zoo. The tram ride from the Park to the Zoo through the Circus is three times longer than the ride not going through the Circus. The ride from the Circus to the Zoo going through the Park is twice as short as the ride not going through the Park.
