The rabbit doubles its weight every 2 months. Starting from 2 pounds in July, it will weigh 4 pounds in September, 8 pounds in November, 16 pounds in January, 32 pounds in March, and 64 pounds in May. Therefore, it will weigh 46 pounds in April, as it surpasses 32 pounds but hasn't reached 64 pounds yet.
