A virus reproduces by dividing into two, and after a certain growth period, it divides into two again. As the virus continues to reproduce, it will continue to divide in two. A scientist is doing experiments with a new strain of Corona virus. She starts with 5 viruses in a petri dish. How many viruses will be in the system AFTER 10 divisions? After how many division will there be 81,920 viruses?

One shot. if 60% of 10 is 6, then what is 70%? we know it would be seven (since 60% is mathematically 60/100, or 6/10, then 70% is 70/100, or 7/10) but we can check anyway using ratios: 6 : 60% = x : 70%*inverse multiplicationx * 60% = 6 * 70%*divide both sides by 60%x = (6 * 70%) / 60%x = 7and since he has made 6 shots already, he would need just one more to get 7 shots or 70%. if the explanation is too confusing, comment and i will try to
