Part 1

There is a single lily pad floating in a pond. Everyday, the lily pad doubles in area until it covers the entire pond. It takes exactly 30 days for the single lily pad to cover the entire pond. If we instead started with 8 lily pads on the first day, how many days would it take to cover the entire pond?
