Read Solution (Total 7)
-
- After 16 times,
76% of 76% of 76% of 76% of...............................(16 times)of 75 < 1. - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(3)
- 76%75 is 57
in the similar way get through 76% of 76% of 76% of.....75 57
2 time -----> 43.32
3 time -----> 32.9232
4 time -----> 25.021
5 time -----> 19.016
6 time -----> 14.452
7 time -----> 10.983
8 time -----> 8.347
9 time -----> 6.344
10 time ----> 4.821
11 time ----> 3.664
12 time ----> 2.784
13 time ----> 2.116
14 time ----> 1.6086
15 time ----> 1.222
16 time ----> 0.929
17 time ----> 0.706
by the above consideration we get the answer that the count will be less than 1 for the 16th time
for more approximate value it will be 17th time - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(3)
- Calculate - [Log(76.01)/log(.75)] = 15.04......
So the answer is 16.
You can do it for any number
for ex. 80%of80of.............11
-ve value of Log(11.01)/log(.80) = 11.75........
So the answer is 12.
Check it out by doing it 12 times. - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- Minimum 16 times totally, it will be repeated.
After 16 times,
it become 0.92 < 1 is become true. - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(3)
- As per the condition, 16 times repeating the process is enough.
so, answer = 16 times Minimum.
1st time (76% of 75), we get = 57
2nd time (76% of 57), we get = 43.32
.
.
.
.
.
15th time(76% of 1.460), we get = 1.22
16th time(76% of 1.22), we get = 0.92
So, 16times minimum is enough. - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(2)
- Minimum 16% totally, this process repeated.
After 16 times, it become 0.92 < 1 is become true. - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(2)
- inimum 16% totally, this process repeated.
After 16 times, it become 0.92 < 1 is become true. - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
