If you triple 4 and subtract 2 each day how many days until you have zero?

To solve this problem, let’s break it down step by step.

First, if you triple 4, you get:

3 x 4 = 12

So, you start with 12. Now, every day you subtract 2 from this number. Let’s see how this unfolds over several days:

  • **Day 1:** 12 – 2 = 10
  • **Day 2:** 10 – 2 = 8
  • **Day 3:** 8 – 2 = 6
  • **Day 4:** 6 – 2 = 4
  • **Day 5:** 4 – 2 = 2
  • **Day 6:** 2 – 2 = 0

After 6 days of subtracting 2 each day, you will reach zero. So, the answer is:

6 days
