Answer:

800

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to get the new population of bacteria in <em>690 minutes</em>, you have to know how often the bacteria will divided in the time frame. So, you have to <em>divide </em><em>690 minutes </em><em>by </em><em>230 minutes.</em>

  • 690 min. ÷ 230 min. = 3 times

The bacteria wil<u>l double its colony 3 times in 690 minutes</u>.

  • <em>First division:</em> 100 x 2 = 200 bacteria
  • <em>Second division:</em> 200 x 2 = 400 bacteria
  • <em>Third division:</em> 400 x 2 = 800 bacteria

Therefore, the population of bacteria will be 800 in 690 minutes.
