Hey there! ☺☻☺

Increase in population = 180000 - 160000
                                    = 20000
Increase percentage = increase/ original value * 100
                                  = 20000/160000 * 100
                                  = 12.5%

Answer 2

Increase in population
= 180000 - 160000   
= 20000

==================================

Increase percentage = increase ÷ original value * 100                             
    = 20000/160000 * 100                                  = 12.5
