Solution:
32 elders will be in the VII generation of his family.
VI generation: 8 × 2 = 16
VII generation: 16 × 2 = 32
4. If he takes his family tree forward, in which generation will he find 128 elders?
Solution:
Number of members in VII generation of Madhav’s family = 32
Number of members in VIII generation of Madhav’s family = 32 × 2 = 64
Number of members in IX generation of Madhav’s family = 64 × 2 = 128
Thus, in the IX generation, the number of elders in Madhav’s family will be 128.
