Answer:
Let's Assume, population of the city before 3 years was 100.
Let's Assume, population of the city before 3 years was 100.after 1 year population= 108
Let's Assume, population of the city before 3 years was 100.after 1 year population= 108after 2years population= 108+(108×8/100)= 116.64
Let's Assume, population of the city before 3 years was 100.after 1 year population= 108after 2years population= 108+(108×8/100)= 116.64after 3 years population=116.64+(116.64×8/100)=125.9712
Let's Assume, population of the city before 3 years was 100.after 1 year population= 108after 2years population= 108+(108×8/100)= 116.64after 3 years population=116.64+(116.64×8/100)=125.9712Now, let's compare with original population:
Let's Assume, population of the city before 3 years was 100.after 1 year population= 108after 2years population= 108+(108×8/100)= 116.64after 3 years population=116.64+(116.64×8/100)=125.9712Now, let's compare with original population:125.9712 from 100
Let's Assume, population of the city before 3 years was 100.after 1 year population= 108after 2years population= 108+(108×8/100)= 116.64after 3 years population=116.64+(116.64×8/100)=125.9712Now, let's compare with original population:125.9712 from 100then, 1,96,830 from (?)
