Problema Solution

If 6 cells split and made 2 new cells every hour how many cells would you have in a 24 hour period

Answer provided by our tutors

Start: 6 cells

After 1 hours: 6 + 2

After 2 hours: 6 + 2*2

........

After x hours: 6 + 2x

After 24 hours we have x = 24 hours and 6 + 2*24 = 6 + 48 = 54 cells.

In 24 hour period you would have 54 cells.
