Question

A town doubles its size every 60 years. If the population is currently 1,100, what will the population be in 180 years ?

Answer 1

Answer:

3,300 people

Step-by-step explanation:

180 / 60 years = 3

1,100 * 3 = 3,300

Answer 2

Answer: The population would be a total of 8,800 people.

Step-by-step explanation: Currently speaking, a town's population is 1,100 people in total.  Since it doubles every 60 years, it would double 3 times in total, because 180 / 60 equals 3.  2 x 1,100, then 2 x 2,200, and then 2x 4,400, gives you 8,800.

Have a great day! :)
