Answer 1

Answer:

Hey there, grab the question's key.

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN -

☞ TOTAL POPULATION=280000

☞PERCENTAGE DECREASED IN TOTAL POPULATION=8%

PERCENTAGE INCREASED IN TOTAL POPULATION=10%

according to the question,first there was a decrease due to the flood and after that an increase so we will follow what the question says-

$280000 - (280000 \times \frac{8}{100} )$

$280000 - 22400$

$= 257600$

⏫ is the population after the flood and after it,the increase begun so-

$257600 + (257600 \times \frac{10}{100} )$

$257600 + 25760$

$= 283360$

we got out answer that is 283360.

it means the current population is 283360.
