In a lab experiment, 8000 bacteria are placed in a petri dish. The conditions are such that the number of bacteria is able to double every 11 hours. How many bacteria
would there be after 24 hours, to the nearest whole number?

When rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 2 feet per second or 5 miles per hour, they are called unit rates. if you have a multiple-unit rate such as 120 students for every 3 buses, and want to find the single-unit rate, write a ratio equal to the multiple-unit rate with 1 as the second term.
