The total number of rabbits in 5 months are 1000
How many are there in 5 months
From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:
Start = 2 rabbits
Each pair = 4 babies per month
Using the above as a guide, we have the following:
Month 1 = 2
Month 2 = 2 * 4 + 2 = 8
Month 3 = 8 * 4 + 8 = 40
Month 4 = 40 * 4 + 40 = 200
Month 5 = 200 * 4 + 200 = 1000
Hence, there are 1000 in 5 months
