1n 1996 there are
80 + 16% of 80 = 80 + 0.16*80 = 80+12.8 = 92.8
This can also be done as follows
116% of 80 = 1.16*80 = 92.8
You can round this off and say there will be about 93 rabbits in 1996. But if you use this answer for the next year, use the full non-rounded answer.
The next year there will be
92.8*1.16=107.648 which can be rounded to 108 rabbits for 1997.
but remember 92.8 was the answer to 80*1.16
so in 1997 (which is the second year since the beginning)
rabbits = 80*1.16*1.16 = 80*1.162= 107.648
rabbits in the 3rd year (which is 1998) will be 80*1.163
