Q
Q: If a population increases from 5000 to 6000, what is the percentage increase?
Solution:
Increase = 6000 - 5000 = 1000. Percentage increase = (1000/5000) * 100 = 20%.
Steps: 8
Show Steps
Step 1: Identify the initial population, which is 5000.
Step 2: Identify the new population, which is 6000.
Step 3: Calculate the increase in population by subtracting the initial population from the new population: 6000 - 5000.
Step 4: The result of the subtraction is 1000, which is the increase in population.
Step 5: To find the percentage increase, divide the increase (1000) by the initial population (5000): 1000 / 5000.
Step 6: The result of the division is 0.2.
Step 7: To convert the decimal to a percentage, multiply by 100: 0.2 * 100.
Step 8: The final result is 20%, which is the percentage increase.
