Hello,

f (4) = f (2*2) = f (2) + f (2) = 3+3=6

f (8) = f (2*4) = f (2) + f (4) = 3+6=9

f (16) = f (2*8) = f (2) + f (8) = 3+9=12

f (32) = f (2*16) = f (2) + f (16) = 3+12=15

If f (a. b) = f (a) + f (b) and f (2) = 3, then f (32) equals how can we get 15 after thisf (16) = f (8) + f (2) + f (2) ? what's the next step?
