Question

The pollution of a city was 77,000 and it increased by 5 1/2 percent in next 5 years. What did it become ? ​

Answer 1

Hello user

Initially, population was 77,000

ATQ,

Population increases by 5/2 % of the initial population..

So, 5/2*77000/100= 1925

Now, new population is..

77,000+1,925

= 78925

So, new population is 78925.

Hope this helps.
