Solution
The spider's web doubles in size every day. This means that if the web is 100% complete on the 15th day, it would be 50% complete on the 14th day (since it doubles from the 14th to the 15th).
Similarly, it would be 25% complete on the 13th day (since it doubles from the 13th to the 14th to become 50%).
So, the answer is the 13th day.
