Squads of 50 soldiers receive ammunition at a rate of (9/10)*u(n-1) [nMin:100] or nine tenths the previous day's allotment per day with 100 on the first day. With shipments every three weeks which restart the cycle, as well as another new 50 soldiers joining the fray every five weeks, how many bullets are fired from that army in 5 months?


A= u(1,21)
1. 20 ÷ 3 X A = 5937.206... aka B.
2. 15 ÷ 3 X A = 4452.905... aka C.
3. 10 ÷ 3 X A = 2968.603... aka D.
4. 5 ÷ 3 X A = 1484.301... aka E
50(B+C+D+E) = 742150.84


How many ways can one travel a path which is constructed of five grids, if said five grids are of dimensions 1X5, 3X3, 3X3, 1X2, and 1X3 respectively? Using Pascal's Triangle Arithmetique, one can easily deduce that said grids are comprised of 5 paths, 20 paths, 20 paths, 3 paths, and 4 paths respectively. Because a journey stretches from beginning to end, and a different path on any of the five grids results in a different total journey, the values of the grids must be multiplied by each other. (5)(20)(20)(3)(4) is equal to 24000.
