let he has x flowers...after moving from 1st river he has 3x flowers.let he put y flowers in 1st temple
remaining flowers =3x-y
again in 2nd river flowers=3(3x-y)
again in 2nd temple he put y flowers
remaining flowers=9x-4y
in 3rd river flowers=27x-12y
after putting in temple he has 27x-13y=0
27x=13y
x/y=13/27
thus the no. of flowers is 13 initially and in each temple 27 flowers are given

let he has x flower with him and he took y flower at each temple and there are n temple and the formula for this is
x=2^n -1
y=2^n
there are 3 temple(as given in problem)
so n=3
x=2^3 -1=7
y=2^3=8
so initially a person has 7 flower when person moves in river,it got doubal,so become 14
then he take 8 flower to temple,because value of y is 8
he remains with 6 flower

then goes to 2nd temple,it become double 12
took in temple 8,so remains 4
then goes to 3rd temple
become double 8
took in temple 8,so remains 0
