To find the growth rate of the bacteria, divide the number of bacteria grown in 4 hours by 4: 122 bacteria / 4 hours = <<122/4=30.5>>30.5 bacteria/hour
Then multiply the hourly growth rate by the number of hours to find the total number of bacteria: 30.5 bacteria/hour * 6 hours = <<30.5*6=183>>183 bacteria. Answer: \boxed{183}.
A scientist is growing bacteria in a beaker. At this rate, in 4 hours, 122 bacteria have grown. How many bacteria will grow in 6 hours
