To start, find your equation, n=3000(.5)^t, n being your number of bacteria and t being your time. Now plug in 375 for n and solve for t, 375=3000(.5)^t, .125=.5^t, t=log_{.5} .125=3. This means your answer is 3 minutes. To check it, plug it into your equation. n=3000(.5)^t=3000(.125)=375

Pat attention to the ending of the numbers. If there are an odd amount of odds, it's going to be odd. If there is an even amount of odds, it's going to be even. If there's only evens, it's only going to stay even.
