Then place two pennies on the next square. Then place four pennies on the third square. continue this until all 64 square are covered with pennies." As he'd been saying pennies for over 25 years, Mr. Brown did not consider this much of an award, but soon realized he made a miscalculation on the amount of money involved.
(a) How much money expresses in dollars would Mr. Brown have to put on the 32nd square? (b) How much money expressed in dollars would the traveling salesman recieve in total if the checkerboard only had 32 squares? (c) Calculate the amount of money necessary to fill the whole checkerboard (64 squares).How money expressed in dollars would the farmer need to give the salesman?
