Water lilies double in area every 24 hours. In spring, there is one water lily on a lake. In sixty days the lake is completely covered with lilies. How many days did it take to cover half of the lake?
Simple calculation?
59 days.
Reply:butch is right
Reply:59 days, because on the 60th day the lake would be completely covered.
Reply:59-cause next day hey will be doubled
Reply:30,
Reply:30 days?
Reply:30 days, because that is the half of 60...
Reply:i don't know guessing here.......................59 maybe cause one more day who double that and I would assume that at 59 it was half done so double in 24 hours it would have to be 59!
