    Solution:

    we are given that

    Kathy stood on the middle rung of a ladder.

    Since she climbed up 44 rungs, moved down 33 rungs ... total up move of 44-33=11 rungs

    Then climbed up 99 rungs. so a total of 11+99=110 rungs up.

    Then she climbed up the remaining 33 rungs to the top of the ladder so total up move by 110+33=143 rungs

    Since Kathy stood on the middle rung of a ladder so number of rungs=143x2=186

    Now add the middle rungs.

    Total number of rungs in the whole ladder=186+1=187
