Answer / guest
Mark would have ate 127/128 (99.22%) of the pizza during the
week.
Mark ate half the pizza on Monday. On Tuesday, he would have
ate half of the remaining pizza i.e. 1/4 of the original
pizza. Similarly, he would have ate 1/8 of the original
pizza on Wednesday and so on for the seven days.
Total pizza Mark ate during the week is
= 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 + 1/32 + 1/64 + 1/128
= 127/128
= 99.22% of the original pizza

Answer / divya
Mark ate 1/2 of the pizza on 1st day, 1/2 left
1/4 on the second..., 1/4 left
.....................
.....................
on the 7th day, ate 1/128 and 1/128 is left.
so, he ate 1-(1/128) of the pizza
ie, 127/128
ie,99.22%.

Given, Ram ate half a cheese on Monday he ate half of what was left on Tuesday and so on.
Amount of cheese eaten by Ram =12+12×12+12×12×12……..+127
⇒ Amount of cheese eaten by Ram =12×1−1271−12
⇒ Amount of cheese eaten by Ram =12×1−112812=127128=0.9922
∴ Amount of cheese eaten by Ram in% = 99.22%

In the middle of the confounded desert, there is the lost city of "Ash". To reach it, I will have to travel overland by foot from the coast. On a trek like this, each person can only carry enough rations for five days and the farthest we can travel in one day is 30 miles. Also, the city is 120 miles from the starting point. What I am trying to figure out is the fewest number of persons, including myself, that I will need in our Group so that I can reach the city, stay overnight, and then return to the coast without running out of supplies. How many persons (including myself) will I need to accomplish this mission?
