Question

The population of a city is 1,25,000. If the annual birth rate and death rate are 5.5% and 3.5% respectively. Calculate the population of the city after 3 years.

Sum

Solution

Here net growth = (5.5 - 3.5)% = 2%
P = ₹ 1,25,000
n = 3 years

∴ Population of the city after 3 years
= 1,25,000 `(1 + 2/100)^3`

= 1,25,000 `((102)/(100))^3`

= 1,25,000 x `(102 xx 102 xx 102)/(100 xx 100 xx 100)`

= 1,32,651.
