Q
Q: If a population of a town increases from 2000 to 2500 in a year, what is the percentage increase in population?
Solution:
Percentage increase = ((2500 - 2000) / 2000) * 100 = (500 / 2000) * 100 = 25%.
Steps: 6
Show Steps
Step 1: Identify the initial population, which is 2000.
Step 2: Identify the new population, which is 2500.
Step 3: Calculate the increase in population by subtracting the initial population from the new population: 2500 - 2000 = 500.
Step 4: Divide the increase in population (500) by the initial population (2000): 500 / 2000.
Step 5: Multiply the result from Step 4 by 100 to convert it to a percentage: (500 / 2000) * 100.
Step 6: Calculate the final result: 25%.
