find population of a place increased to 54000in 2003 at 5 percent per annum
What would be its population in 2005?​

Answer 1

Population of a place increased at the rate of 5%per annum. Population in 2004 at the rate of 5%per annum = 54000 x ( 5 / 100) = 2700 = 54000 + 2700 = 56700. Population in 2005 at the rate of 5%per annum = 56700 x ( 5 / 100) = 2835 = 56700 + 2835 = 59,535

Answer 2

Answer:

Now population in 2003 = 54000. Population of a place increased at the rate of 5%per annum. Population in 2004 at the rate of 5%per annum = 54000 x ( 5 / 100) = 2700 = 54000 + 2700 = 56700. Population in 2005 at the rate of 5%per annum = 56700 x ( 5 / 100) = 2835 = 56700 + 2835 = 59,535.
