Mike got drunk and fell into a big hole - 2m deep. He would climb 1/4 of a metre every day but at night he slid back 1/8 of a metre. At this rate, how many days before Mike could climb out of the hole? (It's ok, I dropped beer down to him a few times.... ;))

Also, rep points can't always be applied straight away - limits on the site - but all should be updated by the Sunday after the QOTD :D

Each day Mike goes 1/8m until the day Mike is at 1.75m in the morning, he gets out of the hole that day, therefore, 1.75/(1/8)=14 and 14 +1 = 15 days.
