One man has a habit of smoking cigarettes regularly. He has a strange habit of smoking even filters of the cigarette, which people usually throw it out. After smoking every 5 cigarettes, he attaches five filters of each cigarette and then he smokes it.
Now the question is, if he has a packet of 25 cigarettes daily, how many numbers of cigarettes per day he actually consumes?
31.
For every five of the 25 cigarettes he has, he can make another one. So that makes 25/5=5 more cigarettes.
Then from the 5 new cigarettes, he can make another one.
So that’s 25+5+1=31 cigarettes in all.
