    Nick.

    40 - 1.50

    38.5 - 1.50

    37 - 1.50

    35.5 - 1.50

    34 - 1.50

    32.5 - 1.50

    31 - 1.50

    29.5 - 1.50

    27 - 1.50

    25.5 - 1.50

    = 24. 10 days.

    24 - 1.50

    = 22.5 after 11 days.

    Bob:

    9 + 1.50

    10.50 + 1.50

    12 + 1.50

    13.50 + 1.50

    15 + 1.50

    16.50 + 1.50

    18 + 1.50

    19.50 + 1.50

    21 + 1.50

    22.50 + 1.50

    Same amount of money: 24. After 10 days.

    25.50 + 1.50

    Bob will have more money then Nick in 11 days. He'll have 27 dollars when Nick has 22.5 dollars.
