Question

5% population of a town died due to some epidemic and thereafter 15% of the remaining migrated from the town .If the population of the town today is 80750,find the population of the town in the beginning.​

Answer 1

Answer:

100937

Step-by-step explanation:

lets take the total population at the first as 100%, 5% died due to an epidemic and 15% fled.

Thus 80% remained.

If 80=80750

then 1=80750÷80

So,100%=(80750÷80)×100

100937.5

approximately 100937 people lived in the town at first.
