Friends,
The Answer given by ‘Gaurav Sharma’ is correct and
the approach (bottom to top) suggested by ‘Shailesh’ is
good. But with minor correction we can arrive the solution
using this approach:
After 5th loot, No. of breads left = 3
after 4th loot, no. of breads left = (3+0.5)x2 = 7
after 3rd loot, no. of breads left = (7+0.5)x2 = 15
after 2nd loot, no. of breads left = (15+0.5)x2 = 31
after 1st loot, no. of breads left = (31+0.5)x2 = 63
So, before 1st loot, no. of breads left = (63+0.5)x2 = 127
