There are five bags. In the first bag we put some fruits. Each bag the number of fruits is reduced by 1/4. The last bag contains 4. Then the number of fruits in the first bag is ?
Correct Answer: 1024
Explanation:
Fruits reduced by 1/4.
Total no. of bags N = 5
Formula to find no. of fruits in 1st bag = 4^n
Last Bag = 4 fruits.
That means, 4th bag = 4 x 4 = 16 fruits
3rd bag = 16 x 4 = 64 fruits
2nd bag = 64 x 4 = 256 fruits
1st bag = 256 x 4= 1024 fruits.
