george baked a total of 150 pizzas for 7 straight days , beginning on saturday . he baked 3 / 5 of the pizzas the first day , and 3 / 5 of the remaining pizzas the second day . if each successive day he baked fewer pizzas than the previous day , what is the maximum number of pizzas he could have baked on wednesday ?
"3 / 5 of the 150 pizzas cooked on saturday = 90 pizzas 3 / 5 of the remaining pizzas on sunday = 36 pizzas we ' re left with ( 150 - 90 - 36 ) = 24 pizzas for the remaining 5 days . the prompt tells us that each day has fewer pizzas than the day before it , so we ca n ' t have duplicate numbers . m t w th f 8 7 6 2 1 = 24 w = 6 b"
