Hello
Here is your answer
The population= 60000
Increased population=62500

1% of population= 1/1000 × 60000 = 600

Increased number = 2500

2 % = 1200
3% = 1800
4% = 2400

So the answer is 4.02%

I hope you understand the answer

Answer 2

If the population of a town has increased from 60000 to 62500 then the increase percent is 4.167%

Given:

The population of a town has increased from 60000 to 62500.

To find:

Increase percent of the population

Solution:

It is given that the population of a town has increased from 60000 to 62500.

Hence,

Increase in population of the town = 62500 - 60000

                                                          = 2500

Initial population of the town = 60000

The increase percent of population is given the relation:

increase percent = ((Increase in population of the town

                                                             /Initial population of the town)) x 100

                             = (2500/60000) x 100

                             = 25/6

                             = 4.167%

Hence,

if the population of a town has increased from 60000 to 62500 then the increase percent is 4.167%
