Answer:

growing at a rate of 200% an hour

Explanation:

I am going to assume that binary fission occurs 4 times an hour.

I need the equation first. 4 hours, 1 time an hour per bacteria.

I'm confused a bit, you were kinda vague. Contact me if you can give me more info, and I will be happy to help.
