Answer:

$15.22\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

The population in 1981 is 46 million.

In 2011, the population increased to 53 million.

The increase in population is (53 -46)million =7 million

Now we express 7 million as a percentage of 46 million

$=\frac{7}{46}*100\%$

$=0.1522*100\%$

=15.22%

The probability is 1/462.

To find this, we will find the number of combinations of 5 country songs taken 5 at a time, 6 pop songs taken 0 at a time, and the total number of outcomes will be 11 songs taken 5 at a time:

$\frac{_5C_5\times_6C_0}{_{11}C_5}
\\
\\\frac{\frac{5!}{5!0!}\times\frac{6!}{0!6!}}{\frac{11!}{5!6!}}=\frac{1\times1}{\frac{11!}{5!6!}}
\\
\\=\frac{1}{462}$
