Question

the population of city was 70000, it increased by 8% .what is the population now ?

Answer 1

Answer:

75600

Step-by-step explanation:

Original no. of people = 70000

% increase = 8

no. of people increased = 8% of 70000

                                      = 8/100 *70000

                                      = 8*700

                                      = 5600 ppl .

total population now = earlier population + % increase = 70000+5600

                                  = 75600 people
