Over the summer maggie plans to read one book the first week and double the number of books each week for the next 5 weeks.how many books will Maggie read in the 6th week. How do you complete this problem and show you work?
For week 1, she read 1 book. Then double that by multiplying by 2. Then 2 doubled is 4. 4 doubled is 8. Finally, week 6 is 8 doubled which is 16 books read by week 6.
