In this game I will give I challenging question. The first one to answer correctly and show there work will be given a point. When one question is answered I will post another, more challenging question. Is anyone up to the challenge?

Q1-Which is more: being given one million dollars, or one penny the
first day, double that penny the next day, then double the previous dayâs
pennies and so on for a month?

Example of how to begin:

Day    No.of Pennies Given    Total No.of Pennies

1                         1                                    1

2                        1 x 2 = 2                 1+2 =  3

3                        2 x 2 = 4               1+2+4 =  7

4                        4 x 2 = 8             1+2+4+8 = 15

5                        8 x 2 = 16           1+2+4+8+16 = 31

So on and so on.
First one to answer correctly and to show there work gets a point.
Let te game begin!
