Solution

The correct option is B 2120
Number of fishes in the pond initially = 265
It is given that fishes doubles in a month.

Number of fishes in the pond after one month = 265 × 2 = 530

Number of fishes in the pond after two months = 530 × 2 = 1060

Number of fishes in the pond after three months = 1060 × 2 = 2120

Thus, there are 2120 fishes in the pond after 3 months.
