haha! Good point Aimee! How long does it take for the rabbits to mature? I’ve assume they mature and are able to reproduce after one month, but the answer if different (and more complicated – a bit) if it’s longer. I think we can safely assume that rabbits live longer than 20 months, though (provided no one is eating them 😉 )

hahaha ok, no problem! I was just saying this because it sounded a bit like the questions I had in my own math homework or math textbooks, but then this question is actually much harder! It was fun to solve 😉
