george baked a total of 75 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 75 pizzas cooked on saturday = 45 pizzas 3 / 5 of the remaining pizzas on sunday = 18 pizzas we ' re left with ( 75 - 45 - 18 ) = 12 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 5 4 2 1 0 = 12 w = 2 c"
