Answers: It takes 1 hour and 17 minutes for 1 amoeba to fill half of a jar that is twice as tall as it is wide. How long will it take to fill it completely?
an hour and 19 minutes
the jar is already half full, so in 2 minutes, every amoeba in the jar will divide, completely filling the jar
correction: it will take 2 minutes to complet the job of filling the jar. the grand total being 1 hr and 19 min to fill it....
2 hr 34 min
idk but the first guy is wrong
2 minutes
1 hour 19 minutes total
The Amoeba is doubling itself every 2 minutes at 1 hour and 17 minutes it has filled the jar 1/2 full at 1 hour and 19 minutes the jar is completely full...
