Final answer:
To calculate the number of bacteria produced in a minute, multiply the reproduction rate (67 bacteria per second) by the number of seconds in a minute (60), resulting in 4020 bacteria.
Step-by-step explanation:
The student has asked: "A bacterium reproduces at a rate of 67 per second. How many bacteria will be made in 1 minute?" This is a mathematics question focused on multiplication and rate calculation.
To find the total number of bacteria produced in one minute, we need to multiply the reproduction rate per second by the number of seconds in a minute. Since there are 60 seconds in a minute, the calculation would be:
- Multiply the rate of reproduction (67 bacteria per second) by the number of seconds in a minute (60).
- 67 bacteria/second × 60 seconds/minute = 4020 bacteria.
Therefore, in one minute, 4020 bacteria will be produced. This assumes a constant rate of reproduction and does not take into account any other factors that may influence bacterial growth such as resources or space.
