A foam toy is 2 inches wide. It double the side for every minute it is in water. What is the width of the toy after 5 minutes
To solve this problem, just double or multiply each term by two. Since I do not give the answer away, lets say you got the same problem, but the size tripled. Then 2x3=6x3=18x3=54x3=162x3=486.

32 x 2 = 64 inches wide
