John and Jacob are planning on a vacation. John says, "It will be better if we take the train to the hotel. We will reach faster."
To this, Jacob says, "No. You are wrong. The train stops halfway to the hotel and then we will have to walk the rest of the way. We should take the bikes to the hotel directly."
John says, "You are wrong."

Now, John takes the train while Jacob takes the bike. The train travels at four times the speed of the bike. The bike travels at twice the speed of walking.

Who do you think will reach the hotel first?

A solo dice game is played. In this game, upon each turn, a normal pair of dice is rolled and the score is calculated not by adding the numbers but multiplying them.

In a particular game, the score for the second roll is five more than what was achieved in the first roll. The score for the third roll is six less than what was completed in the second roll. The score for the fourth roll is eleven more than what was achieved in the third. The score for the fifth roll is eight less than what was completed in the fourth.

Can you calculate the score for each of the five throws?
