there is a well.one the first day one flower falls of a plant into it.on the 2nd day 2 flowers fall in.on the third day 4.the number of flowers falling in doubles everyday.after 50 days there are say 'n' flowers.on which day were there n/2 flowers.think and answer
Regardless, in this example, day 50 would be the first day on which there are more than "n/2 flowers", since generally, if n represents the total number of flowers after day d, then there are only (n-1)/2 total flowers present at the end of day d-1.
