Solve this population doubling time problem

apopulationof12000doublesinsizeevery16years.whatwillbethepopulationafter32years

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)  =  32
  16

Doubling Time Periods (t) = 2

Calculate the new population

t = Doubling time periods

Population = Initial Population * 2t

Population = 12000 * 22

Population = 12000 * 4

Population = 48,000
