Question

Your class had an ant farm with 32 ants. If the number of ants increased by a factor of 5 every week, how many ants would there be after 3 weeks? Write your answer in numerical form.

Answer 1

the answer is either 47 or 35

Explanation:

this is. Because the only factors of five are 5 or 1 so all you can do is 5x3weeks=15 so 32+15=47

Or it can be 32+(1x3weeks)=32+3=35
