Answer:

62

Step-by-step explanation:

20% as a decimal is 0.2

For each year get the amount of increase by multiplying the number of rabbits by 0.2

Rabbits in 2013:

25 x 0.2 = 5

25 + 5 = 30 rabbits

Rabbits in 2014:

30 x 0.2 = 6

30 + 6 = 36 rabbits

Rabbits in 2015:

36 x 0.2 = 7.2

36 + 7.2 = 43.2

Rabbits in 2016:

43.2 x 0.2 = 8.64

43.2 + 8.64 = 51.84

Rabbits in 2017:

51.84 x 0.2 = 10.368

51.84 + 10.368 = 62.208

= 62 rabbits

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

I don't know if this is correct but wouldn't it be 560?

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have 10 on one side, you divide 10 by 1/4 to get 40. So you need 40 blocks to fill one side, and 3 1/2 on the other only needs 14. 14*40=560.
