Answer 2

Answer:

In 2001, the number of malaria patients admitted the hospitals of a state was 4375.

Every year this number decrease by 8%.

Let P=4375

R=8%

T=2 yr

Number of patients in 2003=P(1-R/100)^n

=4375(1-8/100)²

=4375(92/100)²

=4375×23×23/25×25

=2314375/625

=3703

Hence, there are 3703 patients in 2003.
