The population of a town is 7500. It increases by 15% during the first year and by 8% during the second year. What will be the population after two years? |
9315 9000 6815 9375 |
9315 |
15% = \(\frac{3}{20}\) 8% = \(\frac{2}{25}\) New population = 7500 × \(\frac{23}{20}\) × \(\frac{27}{25}\) = 9315 |
