    Answer:

    If it doubles every 8 hours then

    population = initial population * 2 ^ (hours / 8)

    ********************************************———

    after 26 hours

    population increases by a factor of

    2 ^ (26 / 8) = 9.51365692

    ************************************************——–

    after 1 week, or 168 hours

    population increases by a factor of

    2 ^ (168 / 8) = 2 ^ 21 = 2,097,152
