Question

Start with 2 Rabbits.Each pair has 6 babies per month.How much will they have by the 12 month?

Answer 1

Starting with 2 rabbits and each pair having 6 babies per month, after 12 months, there will be 24,576 rabbits.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the number of rabbits after 12 months, we can use the information given:

• Start with 2 rabbits.
• Each pair has 6 babies per month.

First, let's calculate how many pairs of rabbits there will be after each month:

1. Month 1: 2 pairs (original pair + 1 pair of babies)
2. Month 2: 4 pairs (2 pairs give birth to 2 more pairs)
3. Month 3: 8 pairs
4. Month 4: 16 pairs
5. Month 5: 32 pairs
6. Month 6: 64 pairs
7. Month 7: 128 pairs
8. Month 8: 256 pairs
9. Month 9: 512 pairs
10. Month 10: 1024 pairs
11. Month 11: 2048 pairs
12. Month 12: 4096 pairs (final count after 12 months)

Since each pair of rabbits has 6 babies per month, we can multiply the number of pairs by 6 to find the total number of rabbits after each month:

• Month 1: 12 rabbits
• Month 2: 24 rabbits
• Month 3: 48 rabbits
• Month 4: 96 rabbits
• Month 5: 192 rabbits
• Month 6: 384 rabbits
• Month 7: 768 rabbits
• Month 8: 1536 rabbits
• Month 9: 3072 rabbits
• Month 10: 6144 rabbits
• Month 11: 12288 rabbits
• Month 12: 24576 rabbits (final count after 12 months)

Answer 2

They will have 72 babies. This is because to make a pair, you need 2 rabbits. So all you have to do is multiply 12 by 6, and you’ll get 72
