A population of insects increases at a rate of 1. 5% per day. About how long will it take the population to double? 2. 5 days 5. 0 days 46. 6 days 66. 7 days.
To calculate the Population Growth (PG) we find the difference (subtract) between the initial population and the population at Time 1, then divide by the initial population and multiply by 100.
