A recycling plant receives a shipment of MM kg of aluminum at the start of each cycle. By the start of the next cycle, only 20%20\% of the previous cycle's stockpile remains (the rest having been processed), and this repeats forever, so the stockpile right after each new shipment approaches a steady long-run level. If that long-run level is exactly 600600 kg, find MM.
