Answer 2

Correct Question :

The present population of a country is 2,685,354.

What was the population 1year ago if it is increased by2% annually ?

AnswEr :

Let the Population of Country 1 Yr Ago be x.

• Increase = 100 + 2% = 102%

A.T.Q.

➟ x × 102% = 2685302

➟ x × $\large\frac{102}{100}$ = 2,685,354

➟ x × $\large\frac{1}{100}$ = 26327

➟ x = 26,327 × 100

➟ x = 2,632,700
