The average annual rate of increase can be calculated using the formula for the average annual growth rate (AAGR), which is [(Ending value/Beginning value)^(1/Number of years)] - 1. In this case, the beginning value is 2 rabbits, the ending value is 64 rabbits, and the time period is 3 years. Plugging these values into the formula gives us [(64/2)^(1/3)] - 1 = 3.1748 - 1 = 2.1748, or 217.5% as the average annual rate of increase.
