<span>The number of ancestors going back through the <em>5th generation</em>, including Tle-nle and counting <em>Tle-nle as the 1st generation</em> is:
= 1 + 3 + 3^2 + 3^3 + 3^4
= (3^5 - 1) / (3 - 1)
= 242 / 2
= 121
Since we included </span>Tle-nle as the 1st generation, we will only compute up to the 4th power. If it is until the 6th generation, add 3^5 to the equation.
The numbers of gallons bought every stop are extraneous...you can ignore them. Add 1.68, 1.76 and 1.65 together and divide the total by three. The average is 1.69
