The answer is: 127 apples

No. of apples sold,
to first customer = (127/2) + (1/2) = 64 So,apples left = 63
to second customer = (63/2) + (1/2) = 64 So,apples left = 31
to third customer = (31/2) + (1/2) = 64 So,apples left = 15
to fourth customer = (15/2) + (1/2) = 64 So,apples left = 7
to fifth customer = (7/2) + (1/2) = 64 So,apples left = 3
to sixth customer = (3/2) + (1/2) = 64 So,apples left = 1
to seventh customer = (1/2) + (1/2) = 64 So,apples left = 0
