    How many times will 4 months pass by in a total of 5 years?

    Well, 5 years = 60 months, so 4 months will pass (60/4) = 15 times.

    A number that doubles every 4 months will become 2¹⁵ times as large

    during that period of time.

    (50 crickets) · (2¹⁵)

    = (50 crickets) · (32,768)

    = 1,638,400 crickets.

    They should all only

    live long and prosper.
