abb0t · Answer

Use a calculator. Lol. You're basicalling finding the sum of 6[2$^1$+2$^2$+2$^3$+...+2$^{10}$]

anonymous · Answer

Oh so I just add that all up till 2 to the power of 10?

abb0t · Answer

Well, from 2$^1$ until you get to 2$^{10}$ and then multiplying it by 6.

No wonder I keep getting wrong answer... Can u wait till I solve, so u can double check my answer :)

abb0t · Answer

I don't have a calculator with me.

anonymous · Answer

I added them all together which is 
(2+4+8+16+32+64+128+256+512+1024) = 2046 * 6 = 12,276 Is this correct ??
