Solve this population doubling time problem
A population of 39836 doubles in size every 6 years. What will be the population after 16 years?
The doubling time is time it takes for a population or data set to double in size/value
Calculate the doubling time periods:
| Doubling Time Periods (t) = | Total Period of Time From Now |
| | Doubling Period |
| Doubling Time Periods (t) = | 16 |
| | 6 |
Doubling Time Periods (t) = 2.6666666666667
Calculate the new population
t = Doubling time periods
Population = Initial Population * 2t
Population = 39836 * 22.6666666666667
Population = 39836 * 6.3496042078728
Population = 252,943
