A certain colony of bacteria began with one cell, and the population doubled every 20 minutes. What was the population of the colony after 2 hours?

Note:
This is a logical question and doesn’t require any prior knowledge except the idea of multiplication. This could also be solved by simply making a table with an interval of 20 min and population which is multiplies by 2 in consecutive cells till we get 2 hours.
