About 24 weeks ago, there were 36 mold spores found in a garden. After a few weeks of observation, it is determined that the
number of mold spores in the garden is tripling every 6 weeks.
The number of mold spores, M, at any given time in the garden is equal to the product of the initial amount of spores, I, and 3 to the
power of n, where n is the number of times the amount of mold spores has tripled.
How many mold spores are in the garden today?
A 2,916
B. 432
C. 8,748
D. 26,244
