Calculate the actual change in the population of a place reporting 700 births, 200 deaths and 300 people immigration and 100 people emigration in a particular year.

700

The correct answer is Option (1) → 700

• Natural change (births – deaths):
  700 – 200 = 500

• Net migration (immigration – emigration):
  300 – 100 = 200

• Actual change in population:
  500 + 200 = 700
