Generation time or doubling time (tG) is the time it takes an organism to divide into 2 cells or on a larger scale, it's the timerequired for the population of cells to double. therefore, tG = 30 mins Initial cell no. (No) = 6 Total time required = 7h Final cell no. (N) = ? For every 30 mins (0.5h), 12 cells are formed, In 1h, 24 cells are formed, and then in 7h, 168cells (i.e., 7h x 24cells) are formed.

How many minutes is 1.2 hours?

Your 1.2 hours is 1 hour and 12 minutes, or 72 minutes. You know an hour is 60 minutes, so 0.1 hours is 6 minutes. You can work that in your head. If 0.1 hours is 6 minutes, then 0.2 hours is twice that, or 12 minutes. The 1 hour, the 60 minutes, plus 12 minutes is 72 minutes. You don't need a calculator for this one.
