Ques:- There are five thieves, each loot a bakery one after the other such that the first one takes 1/2 of the total no. of the breads plus 1/2 of a bread. Similarly 2nd, 3rd,4th and 5th also did the same. After the fifth one no. of breads remained are 3. Initially how many breads were there?

Friends,
The Answer given by ‘Gaurav Sharma’ is correct and
the approach (bottom to top) suggested by ‘Shailesh’ is
good. But with minor correction we can arrive the solution
using this approach:
After 5th loot, No. of breads left = 3
after 4th loot, no. of breads left = (3+0.5)x2 = 7
after 3rd loot, no. of breads left = (7+0.5)x2 = 15
after 2nd loot, no. of breads left = (15+0.5)x2 = 31
after 1st loot, no. of breads left = (31+0.5)x2 = 63
So, before 1st loot, no. of breads left = (63+0.5)x2 = 127

Ques:- Let S be the set of prime numbers greater than or equal to 2 and less than 100. Multiply all the elements of S. With how many consecutive zeros will the product end?
A. 1
B. 4
C. 5
D. 10
Recent Answer : Added by Yash G On 2023-03-01 17:24:09:
To determine how many consecutive zeros the product of S will end with, we need to find the highest power of 10 that divides the product. This is equivalent to finding the highest power of 5 that divides the product, since the number of factors of 2 will always be greater than the number of factors of 5.
The primes in S are {2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97}.
There are 24 primes in S, so the product of S is:
2 x 3 x 5 x 7 x 11 x 13 x 17 x 19 x 23 x 29 x 31 x 37 x 41 x 43 x 47 x 53 x 59 x 61 x 67 x 71 x 73 x 79 x 83 x 89 x 97
We need to find the highest power of 5 that divides this product. To do this, we count the number of factors of 5 in the prime factorization of each number in S.
5 appears once: 5
5 appears once: 25
5 appears once: 35
5 appears once: 55
5 appears once: 65
5 appears once: 85
So, there are six factors of 5 in the product of S. However, we also need to consider the powers of 5 that arise from the factors 25, 35, 55, and 65.
25 = 5 x 5 appears once: 25
35 = 5 x 7 appears once: 35
55 = 5 x 11 appears once: 55
65 = 5 x 13 appears once: 65
Each of these numbers contributes an additional factor of 5 to the product of S. Therefore, there are 6 + 4 = 10 factors of 5 in the product of S.
Since each factor of 5 corresponds to a factor of 10, we know that the product of S will end with 10 zeros. Therefore, the product of S will end with 10 consecutive zeros
