Chaim Mann · Answer 1

D

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to double the amount of constructions built, EVERY YEAR

1st year: 6

2nd year: 6 * 2 = 12

3rd year: 12 * 2 = 24

4th year: 24 * 2 = 48

5th year: 48 * 2 = 96

So, in 5th year, the constructions built is 96 structures

From the answer choices, that would be "D"
