How much money would you have at the end of the month?

Question

if you start to collet pennies for one month (30 days) and on each day collect the same as the the day #..how much money will you end up with?..

example:

day:1= 1 penny

day:2= 2 pennies making a total of 3 pennies.

day:3=3 penies=6 pennies

..................

Answer 1

Day 1  1p  +  day 30    30p = 31p

day 2   2p  +  day 29    29p = 31p

day 3   3p  +  day 28    28p = 31p

..

..

..

day 14  14p  +  day 17  17p = 31p

day 15  15p  +  day 16  16p = 31p

Get the pattern here?  15 times 31 = 465 pennies = $4.65

This works for any series like this.

Answer 2

I believe you would have $4.65 (465 pennies).
