Question

Eva lived in an enchanted village. She loved to go visit her grandmother who lived across the mystic forest. Eva decided to bake a few pies for her grandmother's birthday. But before she could begin her mother told her that the forest path was being watched and guarded by trolls at gates called the "Troll Tolls". They stop travelers and asked them for some form of payment. There were 7 tolls in total and when she got there, she would have to give them half of the cakes that she baked. The trolls were kind enough to usually return one back to the traveler.

How many cakes does Eva have to bake and carry with her in order to have exactly two cakes when she reaches her grandmother's house?​
