Three outlaws entered an inn one evening and ordered baked potatoes. They agreed that the first outlaw would eat half of all the potatoes, the second would eat a third, and the third would eat a sixth. However, being tired, they fell asleep. After the potatoes were served, the first outlaw woke up in the middle of the night, ate half the potatoes, and went back to sleep. Then the second outlaw woke up, ate a third of the remaining potatoes, and also went back to sleep. Finally, near morning, the third outlaw woke up, ate a sixth of the remaining potatoes, and went back to sleep. In the morning, they saw that $10$ potatoes were left on the table. How many potatoes did they originally order?

The sequence $0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,....,1$ where have $1$ number zero and $1995$ numbers one. If we choose two or more numbers in this sequence(but not the all $1996$ numbers) and substitute one number by arithmetic mean of the numbers selected, we obtain a new sequence with $1996$ numbers!!! Show that, we can repeat this operation until we have all $1996$ numbers are equal Note: It's not necessary to choose the same quantity of numbers in each operation!!!
