Q
Q: If a population of a town increases from 10,000 to 12,000 in a year, what is the percentage increase in the population?
Solution:
Percentage increase = ((12000 - 10000) / 10000) * 100 = (2000 / 10000) * 100 = 20%.
Steps: 6
Show Steps
Step 1: Identify the initial population, which is 10,000.
Step 2: Identify the new population, which is 12,000.
Step 3: Calculate the increase in population by subtracting the initial population from the new population: 12,000 - 10,000 = 2,000.
Step 4: Divide the increase in population (2,000) by the initial population (10,000): 2,000 / 10,000.
Step 5: Convert the result from Step 4 into a percentage by multiplying by 100: (2,000 / 10,000) * 100.
Step 6: Calculate the final result: (2,000 / 10,000) * 100 = 20%.
