First person sent the mail to 2 persons. Those 2 sent the
mail to 2 persons each, total 4 persons. Now, those 4 person
sent mail to total 8 persons, then 8 to 16 persons, 16 to 32
persons and so on.... Hence, it a series of 2, 4, 8, 16, 32
upto 30 numbers
It is a Geometric series with common ratio 2 and first
number is also 2. Summation of such series is given by A *
(Rn - 1) / (R - 1) where
A = First term
R = Common Ratio
n = total numbers
So total number of times mail sent by the time it did 30 sets
= 2 * (230 - 1) / (2 - 1)
= 2 * (1073741824 - 1)
= 2 * 1073741823
= 2147483646

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?
