Answer 1

Answer: 5,40,800 Step-by-step explanation: Given:- Population increase after every year is 4% of current population. To find:- Population after 2 years. Sol: Population after 1 year = 4% of current population + Current Population                                        =4÷100x500000 + 500000                                        = 20,000 + 5,00,000                                        =5,20,000(now it becomes current population to find                                                            population of 2nd year) Population after 2 years = 4% of current population + Current Population                                           =4÷100x520000 + 520000                                           = 20,800 + 5,20,000                                           =5,40,800 Hence population after 2 years will be 5,40,800
