In the given diagram, there are total seven regular hexagons. Let's call the outermost (or the largest) hexagon as H1 and so call the innermost (or the smallest) hexagon as H7. The hexagon H2 is formed by joining the mid-points of the adjacent sides of H1. Similarly, H3, H4, H5, H6 and H7 are formed by joining the mid-point of the adjacent sides of the H2, H3, H4, H5 and H6, Respectively. If each side of the H1 is 64 cm, Find each side of the H7.
