Question

The population of a town is 126800. It increases by 15% in the first year and decreases by 20% in the

second year. What is the population of the town at the end of second year?​

Answer 1

Answer:

116,656

Step-by-step explanation:

126800/100*15=19020

126800+19020=145820

145820/100*20=29164

145820-29164=116,656

Answer 2

15% of 126800=current population*15%

                            =126800*15/100

                         =19020

population of 1st year=126800+19020

                      =145820

20% of 107780=145820*20%

                          =29164

population of 2nd year=145820-29164

                               =116656
