Q: If a population of a town increases by 10% every year and the current population is 5,000, what will be the population after one year?
Solution:
Increase = 10% of 5000 = 0.1 * 5000 = 500; Population after one year = 5000 + 500 = 5500.
Steps: 6
Show Steps
Step 1: Identify the current population, which is 5,000.
Step 2: Calculate 10% of the current population. To do this, multiply 5,000 by 0.1 (which is 10% in decimal form).
Step 3: Perform the multiplication: 0.1 * 5,000 = 500.
Step 4: Add the increase (500) to the current population (5,000).
Step 5: Perform the addition: 5,000 + 500 = 5,500.
Step 6: The population after one year will be 5,500.
