You can put this solution on YOUR website!
"e" is a special number like pi. Use 2.7182818284590451 (or a rounded-off version of this) for e. This makes your equation:
B=2400000%282.7182818284590451%29%5E%280.03t%29

To find the bacteria after four 4 years, just replace the "t" with four:
B=2400000%282.7182818284590451%29%5E%280.03%284%29%29
and get out your calculator.
