Answer 1

Answer:

ANSWER:

From the question, it is given that

Initial population of the city = 25000

Final population of the city = 24500

Population decrease = Initial population – Final population

= 25000 – 24500

= 500

Then,

Percentage Decrease in Population = (Population Decrease/Initial Population) × 100

= (500/25000) × 100

= (50000/25000)

= 50/25

= 2%
