Answer»

Given : The arrival of the CIRCUS was seen in the morning at 08:00 AM by GOPAL.  they reported the arrival of the circus every 2 to other uninformed residents  

To find : By 12:00 PM total how many people were informed about the arrival of the circus?

Solution:

08:00 1

08:15 2

08:30 4

08:45 8

09:00 16

09:15 32

09:30 64

09:45 128

10:00 256

10:15 512

10:30 1024

10:45 2048

11:00 4096

11:15         8192

11:30 16384

11:45 32768

12:00 65536

Total = 131071

This is an GP

a  = 1  r = 2  

from 8 AM to 12 PM  

n = 17

S = a(rⁿ - 1)/(r -1 )  = 1(2¹⁷ - 1)  = 1,31,071

by 10 AM   n = 9

2⁹ - 1 =   511

10:00 AM to 11:00 AM

2¹³ - 1 - (2⁹ - 1 )

= 7,680

three terms between 16 and 256

32 , 64 , 128

At 10:30 AM

= 2¹¹ - 1

= 2047
