Given positive integer numInsects, write a while loop that prints that number doubled without reaching 200. Follow each number w

ith a space. After the loop, print a newline. Ex: If numInsects = 16, print:16 32 64 128 import java.util.Scanner;public class InsectGrowth {public static void main (String [] args) {int numInsects;Scanner scnr = new Scanner(System.in);numInsects = scnr.nextInt(); // Must be >= 1/* Your solution goes here */}}

Answer:

The code placed where "/*Your solution goes here */" is as follows:

while(numInsects<200) // while loop

{

System.out.print(numInsects+" "); // output statement

numInsects=numInsects*2; // operation to double the value.

}

Output:

If the input is 16, the result is 16 32 64 128.
If the input is 25, the result is 25 50 100.

Explanation:

The above Java code fills the section designated as "Your solution" and will operate correctly.
The program accepts a user input and continues to print double the value until it reaches 200 or more.
The while loop evaluates whether the value remains below 200. If so, the operation proceeds; otherwise, it stops.
