No again... but let's leave it at that. Someone else can post the solution later on. Do you have any problems I could try to solve?

Well, there's always a little bit of blood when I pee...

An astronaut lands on Mars and discovers unknown creatures in a diameter of 100 meters around his spaceship. After an hour of observing, he notices that each red one splits up into two every 30 minutes, each blue one splits up into two every 20 minutes, and each green one splits up into two every 15 minutes. At this point in time there are 8 red ones, 32 blue ones and 64 green ones. Assuming that nobody leaves the previously outlined area, how many aliens will there be in three hours?

The red aliens will split 6 times so: 8 X 2⁶ = 512

The blue aliens will split 9 times so: 32 x 2⁹ = 16,384

The green aliens will split 12 times so: 64 X 2¹² = 262,144

Total: 279,040 or 1 if the astronaut is consider the alien.
