Question

Spread of Rumors After a large chip manufacturer posts poor quarterly earnings, the rumor of widespread layoffs spreads among the employees.

If \(10\) employees started the rumor, and it has spread to \(100\) employees after \(1\,\rm{h}\), how long will it take for \(25\%\) of the employees to have heard the rumor?
