(52 WEEKS)(INCLUDING MICKEY AND MINNIE)(ASSUME EVERY PREGNACY WILL CONSIST OF 5 BOYS AND 5 GIRLS)

Answer: 6, 570Step by step explanation:  If Minnie and Mickey have 5 girls and 5 boys every 3 weeks for 52 weeks this means they will have 17 pregnancies. At the end of one year Minnie and Mickey alone will have produced 170 children. It takes these children 6 weeks to grow up and be ready to reproduce. Every 6 weeks 10 new rats will be able to have children at a rate of 10 per 3 weeks. This means that a single set of 10 offspring will have 100 children every 3 weeks. There will be 8 sets of offspring that can reproduce before the year is over. This means if the sets have 100 children every 3 weeks starting with one set and adding one more set every 6 weeks, at the end of the year the offspring's offspring will total 6,400. 6,400 + 170 will equal 6,570. The total population is 6,570.
