Betcha Cant't with Homer and Flanders!?!
Question: Betcha Cant't with Homer and Flanders!!?
Homer throws half an apple over the fence at Flanders' house,
the half apple actually turns into one whole apple in mid air and Flanders is pleased!.
Flanders splits his apple into two halves and throws them both over to Homer's house and two whole apples appear!.
This continues for a long time!.
They both started out with nothing, except Homer's half apple he initially threw over the fence!.
How many cycles would it take for one hundred thousand apples to land on Homer's lawn!?

So, I guess:
1/2 yields 1
2/2 yields 2
4/4 yields 4
8/8 yields 8
16/16 yields 16
Looks like exponential growth, can't anyone figure out a shortcut to the number of cycles it takes for 100,000/100,000 yields 100,000!?Www@Enter-QA@Com
