Krishna ate half of a pizza on Monday.
He ate half of what was left on Tuesday and so on.
He followed this pattern for one week.
How much of the pizza would Krishna have eaten during the week...?

Answer:-
Krishna would have ate 127/128 (99.22%) of the pizza during the week.
Krishna ate half the pizza on Monday.
On Tuesday, he would have ate half of the
remaining pizza i.e. 1/4 of the original pizza.
Similarly, he would have ate 1/8 of
the original pizza on Wednesday and so on for the seven days.
Total pizza Krishna ate during the week is
= 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 + 1/32 + 1/64 + 1/128
= 127/128
= 99.22% of the original pizza
