The number of chicks that survived the first 3 weeks is 56.
After one year, Ryan can expect to have double the number of surviving chicks, which is 56 * 2 = 112 chickens.
Therefore, Ryan can expect to have 112 chickens after one year.
Ryan started the summer with 50 chicken eggs in an incubator. Only 84% of the eggs hatched. Of the resulting chicks, 56
of them survived the first 3 weeks. If he expects that after 1 year, his number of chickens will be double the number of chicks that survive the first 3 weeks, how many chickens can he expect to have after one year?
