[u]Round 1[/u] [b]p1.[/b] The fractal T-shirt for this year's Duke Math Meet is so complicated that the printer broke trying to print it. Thus, we devised a method for manually assembling each shirt - starting with the full-size 'base' shirt, we paste a smaller shirt on top of it. And then we paste an even smaller shirt on top of that one. And so on, infinitely many times. (As you can imagine, it took a while to make all the shirts.) The completed T-shirt consists of the original 'base' shirt along with all of the shirts we pasted onto it. Now suppose the base shirt requires $2011$ $cm^2$ of fabric to make, and that each pasted-on shirt requires $4/5$ as much fabric as the previous one did.
