Laundry math

Suppose 6 people go away on vacation.
Each one of the 6 people wear at least 5 items of clothing a day.
How many items of clothing are dirty at the end of said day??

30

Now imagine those people are gone for 6 days.

How many items of clothing would they have to bring to wear clean clothing every day??

180 items of clothing


Aren't holidays fun

You forgot how the pile reproduces. Just like fungus. Every couple of days it's doubled in size.

Good to hear you're back, can't wait to see you, and love the new floors!
