the total number of problems is 1+2+6+18+54+162+486 = 729 486/729 = 2/3

Answer from: Apple557

$\text{Required fraction}= \frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let , The number of problem they did on first day = x

Then, the number of problems they did on second day is twice the number of problem they did on first day = 2x

the number of problems they did on third day is twice the number of problem they did on all previous days = 2(x+2x) = 6x

the number of problems they did on fourth day is twice the number of problem they did on all previous days = 2(x+2x+6x) = 18x

the number of problems they did on fifth day is twice the number of problem they did on all previous days = 2(x+2x+6x+18x) = 54x

the number of problems they did on sixth day is twice the number of problem they did on all previous days = 2(x+2x+6x+18x+54x) = 162x

the number of problems they did on seventh day is twice the number of problem they did on all previous days = 2(x+2x+6x+18x+54x+162x) = 486x

Total number of problem they did in seven days= (x+2x+6x+18x+54x+162x+486x) = 729x

$\text{Required fraction}=\frac{\text{Number of questions to be done on seventh day}}{\text{Total number of questions}}$

$\text{Required fraction}=\frac{486x}{729x} = \frac{486}{729}$

Thus , $\text{Required fraction}= \frac{2}{3}$
