Convert the mixed number into a decimal and multiply on a calculator (or by hand).
<span><span>1.
</span>So the current population of the town is 15 200
and is growing per year with 2%.
Find the population number after 10 years.
First, let’s find the value of 2% in
decimal form
=> 2/100
=> 0.02
Now, let’s try to solve
Population = 15 200 ( 1 + (0.02 x 10) )
Population = 15 200 ( 1 + 0.2 )
Population = 15 200 + 3040
Population = 18 240
Thus, in 10 years, the town’s population will increase to 18 240.
