Q. A restaurant used 11 onion on Monday, 22 onions on Tuesday, 44 onions on Wednesday, 88 onions on Thursday, and 1616 onions on Friday. If this pattern continues, how many onions will the restaurant use on Saturday?\newline_____ onions
  1. Identify pattern of onion usage: Step 11: Identify the pattern of onion usage. The number of onions used each day doubles from the previous day. Monday: 11 onion, Tuesday: 22 onions, Wednesday: 44 onions, Thursday: 88 onions, Friday: 1616 onions.
  2. Calculate onions used on Saturday: Step 22: Calculate the number of onions used on Saturday.\newlineSince the number of onions doubles each day, Saturday's usage will be twice that of Friday's. \newlineCalculation: 1616 onions (Friday) ×2=32\times 2 = 32 onions.
