At Tanika's school, 3 people are chosen in the first round. Each of those people chooses 3 people in the second round, and so on. How many people are chosen in the sixth round?

96 people. With every round, the number of people doubles. 3 turns into 6, which turns into 12, which turns into 24, which turns into 48, which turns into 96. The process is repeated only 5 times, but keep in mind when 3 people are chosen, it ends the first round. Hope this helps!!!
