You receive an email asking you to forward it to four other people to ensure prosperity. assuming the chain isn't broken, how many emails will have been received and sent after 8 email generations, including yours?

well if it asks you to send to 4 people and there are 8 generations which includes yours that mean

1 sent to 4 - 4 recived

4 send to 4 each = 16 recived + the 4 before = 20 (generation 2)

16 send to 4 = 64 + 20 = 84 (generation 3)

64 send to 4 = 256 + 84= 320 (g4)

256 send to 4 = 1024 + 320 = 1344 (g5)

1344 s t 4 = 5376 + 1344= 6730 (g6)

so on and so forth till generation 8

Total number of emails send after 8 email generation is given as

4+16+64+256+1024+4096+16384+65536=87380

Number of email received after 8 email generation is given as

1+4+16+64+256+1024+4096+16384=21845
