I have found a interesting question
Question:
A certain bacteria is known to reproduce asexually two new bacteria every minute under a certain growth condition, On average, 1 out of 4 newly reproduced bacteria cannot reproduce themselves. After a significant time has passed, what would be the percentage of reproducible bacteria within the population?
After consideration, the solution came out:
First of all, lets declare some notations:
Thus, the relationships below are gained:
After that, we can get a geometric series
Then, we need to find the sum to t
Hence:
