divyang pandey  (12 years ago)

ans is 110 balls are used....

total no of matches initially =110/2+1(111)=55+1(55 balls)
after this total no of matches played=54/2+1+1=27+2(27+1=28 balls)
after this total no of matches played=28/2=14(14 balls)
after this total no of matches played=14/2=7 balls
after this total no of matches played=6/2+1=3+1(3 balls)
after this total no of matches played=2/2+1+1(3+1)=2 balls(one match played b/w two and another one match played b/w remaining two..)
after this total no of matches played=2/2=1
therefore total no of matches played=55+28+14+7+3+2+1=110 balls are used...

Is this solution Helpfull? Yes | No
