<em>~Rise Above the Ordinary</em>
If the population quadruples every period say hour, that means the "rate of growth" is 300%, so whatever the current amount, increased by 3 times as much is 4 times the current amount, or a quadrupled amount.
Answer:
43.16 mg
Step-by-step explanation:
After each hour, the amount remaining is 100% - 12% = 0.88 times the amount present at the beginning of the hour. Then after 8 hours, the amount remaining will be the initial amount multiplied by 0.88 eight times, or ...
(120 mg)·(0.88^8) ≈ 43.1561 mg ≈ 43.16 mg
