It is a good idea to get familiar with the operation of your calculator. If you're going to use on-line resources to work problems like this, you can make use of any of several good on-line calculators. Google and Bing search boxes will do calculations for you while observing all the rules of the Order of Operations.
The result of this computation is a number that begins 2.56.... Since the hundredths digit is more than 4, the tenths digit is rounded to the next higher value, from 5 to 6.
Rounded to tenths, 2.1√1.488 = 2.6
Let's start by visualising this concept.
Number of grains on square:
1 2 4 8 16 ...
We can see that it starts to form a geometric sequence, with the common ratio being 2.
For the first question, we simply want the fifteenth term, so we just use the nth term geometric form:
Thus, there are 16, 384 grains on the fifteenth square.
The second question begs the same process, only this time, it's a summation. Using our sum to n terms of geometric sequence, we get:
Thus, there are 32, 767 total grains on the first 15 squares, and you should be able to work the rest from here.
