Last Mile Math

Our kids in the Munyapata school goofing around and guessing the winner in a race of 2 frogs, Izquierdo (Lefty) and Derecho (Righty). Izquierdo is conservative and hops only 10cm each time, while the ambitious Derecho starts by hopping 50 cm but gets so tired that after that he can only hop half of what is left. Who will arrive first to the 100cm mark? The kids say: Izquierdo! And you?
