NO LINKS PL. how many nucleotides are there in 10000 nitrogenous base pairs

Dear student,
One nucleotide consist of a nitrogenous base, a sugar and a phosphate group. 1 base pair consist of two nucleotide because one nitrogenous base is attached to other with the help of hydrogen bonds. Therefore if 10 thousand base pair is there then 2 x 10 thousand nucleotides would be there which accounts to 20 thousand.

Regards
