Answer:

The answer is 51,200 bacterium.

Step-by-step explanation: So you need to figure out the time between 12 and 6pm, then divide it by 40. 12-6 is 360 minutes, you divide by 40 and you get 9 divisions. Multiply the 100 x 2=200, 200 x 2 =400, and so on for 9 times.

You get a result of 51,200 bacterium.

Answer:

The least amount spent is £12.92

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Number of Carton = 38

A carton = 45 pence

4 carton = £1.56

To spend the least amount of money, be needs to go for the least expensive option.

There are 100 pence in £1

So, there are x pence in £1.36

x * 1 =1.36 * 100

x = 136 pence for 4 carton.

To get the price of 1 carton, divide x by 4

x/4 = 136p/4

x/4 = 34 pence.

This means that he can get a carton of juice at the rate of 34p and at the rate of 45p.

The smallest of this is 34p.

Hence total amount spent =

34 * 38

amount = 1292p --- convert to £

Amount = 1292/100

Amount = £12.92

Hence, the least amount spent is £12.92
