一天,在书上看到一道选择题,觉得很有意思,便把它带到单位,让同事做出选择:1.今天一次性给你100万元。2.今天给你1元,连续30天每天都给你前一天2倍的钱。你会选哪一个?结果所有的同事都选择了1。然而,选择1的,只能得到100万元。而如果选择2,却能在第30天得到5亿多元!当我把这个结果说出来时,同事们都不敢相信:第一天仅有1元,每天也只是比前一天增加一倍,怎么到第30天就积蓄到5亿多元了呢?一些固执者运用数学知识来进行验证,结果果然如此。
One day, I saw a multiple-choice question on the book and found it very interesting. I took it to the flat and let my colleagues make a choice: 1. I will give you one million yuan today. 2. Give you 1 yuan today, for 30 consecutive days every day before you give you 2 times the money the day before. Which one would you choose? As a result, all of my colleagues chose 1. However, the choice of 1, can only get 100 million. And if you choose 2, you can get more than 500 million yuan on the 30th day! When I put this result out, my colleagues could not believe it: the first day was only 1 yuan, and it was only double the previous day , How to accumulate more than 500 million yuan by the 30th day? Some stubborn people use mathematics knowledge to carry on the verification, the result is true.
