Question

two mice live in a subway station. if the number of mice triples every 6 months, how many mice will live in the subway in 4 years? (They are looking for exponential growth)

Answer 1

Answer: it will be 48 in 4 years.

Step-by-step explanation: If it’s triples every 6 months that mean times 3 so 2 times 3 is 6 and since there are 12 months you can also do times 6 so 2 times 6 is 12 . And it’s 4 years so 12 times 4 is 48
