A flyer is spread by people at a large conference. Within one hour, the first person gives a stack of flyers to six people. Within the next hour, those six people give a stack of flyers to six new people. If this pattern continues, which summation can be used to calculate the number of people who receive a stack of flyers, not including the initial person, in the first five hours?

    We are given five hours in this problem, since the first hour was used by the very first person, we can say that only 4 hours of this time was used by every 6 people. The equation is therefore,

    n = (6) ^4 = 1296

    Thus, the number of people who received stack of flyers is 1296.
