Can you solve this problem?

A chemist wishes to synthesize a certain compound that has a molecular m of 100. The synthesis requires six consecutive steps, each giving a 50% yield (computed on a mole basis.) If the chemist begins with 30.0 g of starting material having a molecular m of 80.0 g/mol, how many grams of final product will be obtained? How many grams of starting material will be required to produce 10.0g of final product?
