Answer 2

If it doubles in 3 months, then it will becomes 4 times in 6 months, and again, 8 times in 9 months, and 16 times in 12 months..

Again, 32 times in 15 months, 64 times in 18 months, 128 times in 21 months and finally 256 times in 24 months and 24 months = 2 years..

Answer 3

So, it becomes 256 times the oldest one:
So:
\[New = 256 \times 250 = ??\]
