I just saw the same question in a class:

"A man while going dowm in a escalator(which is miving down)
takes 50 steps to reach down and while going up takes 125
steps. If he goes 5 times faster upwards than downwards.
What will be the total no of steps if the escalator werent
moving."

but the last line is:
"What will be the total no of steps visible if the
escalator werent moving."
