A bacteria culture starts with 500 bacteria and doubles in size every hour. Which means, after 1 hour the number of bacteria is

Question

Im stuck here

Answer 1

Where's your attempt?

Answer 2

Hi there. You have to review the lesson with exponentiation.
To raise a power number in the python language must be used **. So it's simple: they gave you the formula and you must put the N at the power.Replace N with 24 and you will have:
N=500*2**24
print(N)

But if you don't understand something it's good to review. Good luck!

How we would know where you stuck without seeing your code?

Answer 4

You are stuck?
I thought bacteria would have stuck in you!

Attempt?

Answer 5

Your task seem to be easy u need to learn basics of data types and loop suppose in one hours 500 bacteria spreading then after 1 hourse it should be double then for 2 hours it will be 1000 see here its multiplying by 2 use loop how many times u want to execute and inside loop write logic for double

Answer 6

Hi there. Heres the answer

print ( 500 * 2 ** ( 24) )

Answer 7

Hi there,

Firstly you need to raise the power.

As it becomes double after every hour.

Total Hours are 24

Now, raise power,, 2 ** 24
Result = 16777216

now, get final result.

print(500*16777216)

Result 8388608000
