Molly always deposit more $40 while Vitto always duplicate the money, so we can withdray 2 equations

For Molly: $ = 40.n

For Vitto: $ =
1.2^(n - 1)

where n is the month number and $ the money

So, we can say?


2^(n - 1)>40n

Look, in the 10th month, Vitto will have
2^(10 - 1)=512 while Molly will have 40.10 = 400

So, Vitto's balance will be greater after a very long time. A.
