Answer:

The year is  b =  1995

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The percentage of the number of babies born out of wedlock in 1990 is  k = 28%

    The percentage by which the number increase per year is  i = 0.6%

     The percentage of of the number of babies born out of wedlock considered is  a = 31%

Generally the difference in between the percentage in 1990 and the percentage considered is  

       d =  a - k

=>    d =  31 - 28

=>   d =  3\%

Generally the number of year require for the percentage to be equal  to  31%  is mathematically represented as

       n = \frac{3\%}{0.6\%}

=>     n = 5\ years

Generally the year which the considered percentage will be attained is  

    b =  1990 + n

=> b =  1990 + 5

=> b =  1995
