An amoebas divides into two amoebas after one hour. one hour later each of the two amoebas divides to form two more.
write an expression for the number of amoebas after 6 hours
write an expression for the number of amoebas after 24 hours
why might exponential notation be preferable to answer these questions?

after 6 hours    2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 2⁶

after 24 hours 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 2²⁴

Exponential notation is preferable because its easier to write, and easier to work with

47.28 or 47.2857143

step-by-step explanation:

you just divide 331 by 7 and you get that answer. ( i think so tho)
