Question

There is a population of 10,000 bacteria in a

colony. If the number of bacteria doubles every
260 hours, what will the population be 780
hours from now?

Answer 1

80,000

Explanation:

The population doubles every 260 hours. 260 goes into 780 three times.

10,000x2=20,000

20,000x2=40,000

40,000x2=80,000
