Answer 1

Answer:

Answer. = 2,500 per annum

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Population of a town = 1,25,000

Increase rate (per annum) = 2%

2%of 1,25,000 = 2/100 × 1,25,000

= 2,500 per annum.

After 3 years, the population growth will be = 2,500 × 3

= 7,500

Population after 3 years = 1,25,000 + 7500

= 1,32,500

If the population of a town is 125000 and it increases by 12% every year. What is the population of

the town after 2 years?

$\huge\bold\color{aqua}{Solution:-}$

Population of town = 125000

Rate at which it increases = 12%

Population in first year = 12% of 125000

= 12/100 x 125000

= 15000

Population of 1st year = 125000+15000

= 140000

Now,

Population of 2nd year = 12% of 140000

= 12/100 x 140000

= 16800

Population = 156800
