Question

Chase has been playing a game where he can create towns and help his empire expand. Each town he has allows him to create 1.13 times as many villagers. The game gave Chase four villagers to start with. Help Chase expand his empire by solving for how many villagers he can create with 17 towns. Then explain to Chase how to create an equation to predict the number of villagers for any number of towns. Show your work and use complete sentences.

Did I do this right for the first part?
4(1.13)^16= 28.26 which rounds to 28 because you cannot have part of a person.

Wouldn't it just be 17*1.13?
