Question

The population of a village has a constant growth of 4%
every year. If its present population is 32448
what was the population two years ago
​

Answer 1

Answer:

30,000

let's assume that two years ago the population was 100 so after one year it should be 100+4% = 104 and again after one year 104+4% = 108.16 thus compare it with today's value with cross multiplication method

if 108.16 is 32448

so how much is 100?

thus (32448x100)÷108.16

=30000
