Question

Frogs – a species of frog's population grows 24% every year. Suppose 100 frogs are released into a pond. How many frogs will there be in 10 years?

Answer 1

Answer: There will be approximately 860 frogs in 10 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Initial population of frogs =100

Rate of growth = 24%

Time taken = 10 years

We'll use the compound interest formula,

$P(1+\frac{r}{100})^n\\\\=100(1+\frac{24}{100})^{10}\\\\=859.44$

There will be approximately 860 frogs in 10 years.
