It is asking you to slice off 40% of the bounce height in each subsequent bounce.
So you start with full height 1, that's n = 0 bounces. Then after n = 1 bounce the new height is .6. After the second bounce, n = 2, the height becomes .6 X .6 = .36. And after n = 3, we have .6 X .6 X .6 = .216
So by induction we see that h(n = 5) = .6^n = .6^5 = 0.07776 = .078 of its original height or H = .078*200 = 15.6 ft. after five bounces. ANS. 16.0 if rounded to the nearest tenth

So basically you want to find the cost per day. So you have 5 days, so divide £100 by 5.
You get £20 per day
Now, the cost per child. We have 80 children so it would be £20/80 children per day.
Our answer is £0.25 per child per day.
You can do this.
12 inches is 1 foot.
13 inches is 1'1"
14 inches is 1' 2" and so on.
A handy conversion to remember is that 60 mph equals 88 feet per second.
Therefore, 50 mph will be (5/6) of 88 feet per second or 73.3333333333 feet per second.
