To find out how many bacteria will grow in 6 hours, we need to determine the growth rate of the bacteria per hour. 122 bacteria have grown in 4 hours, so the growth rate is 122 bacteria / 4 hours = <<122/4=30.5>>30.5 bacteria per hour.
In 6 hours, the number of bacteria that will grow is 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?(1 point)
