A Math Problem

Jan 19, 2012 16:00

My older daughter has a math problem: An island has a bunny population of 24. If the population triples each year, how many bunnies will there be after 22 years?

My answer: 0, after five years a tidal wave wiped out the entire bunny population on the island.

That's known as quality parenting.

I get about 1.13 billion tons of rabbits, assuming each rabbit weighs about 3 pounds, or over 750 BILLION rabbits. Basically the island is not only overrun, they can walk on each others bodies to the next landmass.
