There is a pond which is very suitable for plankton growth. The amount of plankton is doubled every day. So if it takes 108 days to get the total pond filled with plankton, what is the number of days at which the pond was one-fourth filled?

It took 108 days to get filled. That means it took 107 days to get it half filled so that it would full-fill the next day.
Just like that the pond was one-fourth filled in 106 days.

Now reply me that how many of you have thought of 27 days
(108/4=27)...this is not the correct answer...isn't it?
