Hi Subroto, It's because I'm there putting mushrooms on Kaylin's plate. If we assume her eating rate is 10 (and it has to be at least 10), then after the first round, I must have put 5 more mushrooms on her plate. After the second round, I must have put 15. So she eats 10, then 5, then 10 mushrooms.
I hope that helps!
