You can put this solution on YOUR website!
This is a series of numbers starting with 1, 2, 2^2, 2^3, 2^4, etc. Each additional day, you multiply by 2. So for the third night, the third entry will be 2^2. \r

You will need a calculator, but if there are 31 days in the month, this would be 2^30! I don't have my calculator with me right now, but YOU do the math--John's dad is in BIG TROUBLE if he does dishes for the whole month!!!\r
