Mark has 64 paintings the first day he sells 1/4 of them then on each day after that he sells 1/2 of the paintings he started the day with how many paintings does Mark have left after four days of selling his painting?

1 answer

After the first day, Mark sells 1/4 of his paintings, which is 64 / 4 = 16 paintings.
So, Mark is left with 64 - 16 = 48 paintings after the first day.
On the second day, Mark sells 1/2 of his remaining paintings, which is 48 / 2 = 24 paintings.
On the third day, Mark sells 1/2 of his remaining paintings, which is 24 / 2 = 12 paintings.
On the fourth day, Mark sells 1/2 of his remaining paintings, which is 12 / 2 = 6 paintings.
Therefore, after four days of selling his paintings, Mark is left with 6 paintings.
