2 is the factor. Exponent is the number of days.

Example: I give you 500 and tell you to double it every day for two days.

500 x 2^2 = 500 X 4 = 2000

Break it down even more.

I give you 500 on day one you double it to 1000. On day two, you double 1000 to 2000.

But say I double 500 the first day and get 1000, then day 2 I have to double 1000 and not 500 again. So how is this doubling 500 to get 500k?

when you double you start at the base number then expand outward. if you say I start with 500 but get another 500 then technically I would have to double 1,000 on day two which drastically changes the expected end figure.

I'm standing ground on this one breh

This is basic breh. If I give you $500 on September 1, 2016 and tell you to double it every day. At some point on September 1st, you went out and doubled it. How much more do you need to it to be broken down?

Exactly. You're doubling the 1000 on Day 2. You're not starting back at 500. Every day you're doubling not the original amount but the sums of the amounts you have already doubled.

You are correct... but so what? I don't get what the point of this thread is?
