A certain algorithm has 8 sub-problems, divides its input by 2 repeatedly, and merges the answers from its sub-problems in O(n²) time. Calculate the asymptotic efficiency of this algorithm. Show all your diagrams and details workings in obtaining your answer in order to get full marks. You can use a word processor, drawing program, etc. to create and upload your answer here, or you can do your answer with pencil/pen and paper then take a picture of it and upload here. You can also type/enter your answer in the text box here. A certain algorithm has 8 sub-problems, divides its input by 2 repeatedly, and merges the answers from its sub-problems in O(n²) time.
