You start a chain email and send it to six friends. the next day, each of your friends forwards the email to six people. the process continues for a few days.

Solution:

The following information about the chain email can be Written as follows:

1 Person Email →→6 Persons (E-mail) →6² Persons  (E-mail)→6³ Persons  (E-mail)+.........few Days

As you can see the number of email sent starting from person 1 to 6 persons to 36 persons to 216 persons, forms a Geometric pattern.

So, Sum of the Series = 1 + 6 + 36 + 216 + 1296 +......+  for n days

        =

Formula for n terms of a geometric series

For, Common ratio (r)≥1

Sum of above geometric series up to n terms

the answer is 0.5 mpm

step-by-step explanation:

the line goes half way through the square each time (which is 0.5 or half of course) so that would mean its 0.5 mpm.
