A culture of bacteria triples after 7 hours.

What proportion of the original number of bacteria Q0 will be present after 14 hours?
What proportion of the original number of bacteria Q0 will be present after 28 hours?

1 answer

you can go through the math Q=Q0*3^(t/7) but you will note that the two times are 2 and 4 tripling periods, so there will be 9 and 81 times as many bacteria
