    Ok so the equation would be

    amount = number of bacteria originaly * optional * * 2^ (number of minutes divided by 10)

    It's the number of minutes divided by 10 because it doubles every 10 minutes.

    So if it took two hours for all of it to fill, it would've been 120 minutes so 12 10 minutes.

    2^12

    So half of that would be 60

    I think it takes an hour if you divide it - - - the rest is just extra calculation
