Problem 2

A certain species of fish in a lake reproduces at a rate that doubles its population every 24 hours24~\text{hours}. The initial population of the fish was 200200. If the population tt hours after the initial observation is represented by the function p(t)=2002t24p\left(t\right)=200\cdot{2^{\frac{t}{24}}}, how long does it take for the fish population to quadruple?
