20 Points, Brainliest, 5 stars, and <3 if you answer correctly: E. coli bacteria double in a lab about every 20 minutes. If the initial population is 85 bacteria, what is the population after 3 hours? One day?
***If you give me a ridiculous answer I will report faster than light itself.

3 hours: 38,250

1 day: 122,440

I’m not sure if this is exactly right, my brain gave out half way. Someone check my answer pls

Step-by-step explanation:

3 hours:   3 x 60= 900

                 900 divided by 20= 450

                    450 x 85 = 38,250

1 day:       24 x 60 = 1440

                 1440 x 85 = 122,440

but which class are u may know that first
