27 days. If it doubles every day, it is half the size it is on the 28th on the 27th day.

27 days.
At day 28 - it was as big as it could get - covering all the pond. A day before - it was half that size - meaning covering half the pond.

1 day less than it took to cover the whole pond. i am asuming the pond was covered in 28 days so the answer is 27 days!!

14 days. I just divided 28 by 2. I don't know if I'm right though!
