Question 1165587
A certain type of bacteria, given a favorable growth medium, doubles in population every 6.5 hours.
Given that there were approximately 100 bacteria to start with, how many bacteria will there be in a day and a half?
Assuming a day and half is 36 hrs
:
A =  {{{100(2^(36/6.5))}}}, (exponent is 36/6.5)
A = 4647.75 ~ 4648
