Answer 2

Answer:

40598

Step-by-step explanation:

2015 | 27000 + 6% = 28620

2016 | 28620 + 6% = 30337.2

2017 | 30337.2 + 6%  32157.432

2018 | 32157.432 + 6% = 34086.8779

2019 | 34086.8779 + 6% = 36132.0906

2020 | 36132.0906 + 6% = 38300.016

2021 | 38300.016 + 6% = 40598.017

= 40598

In 2021 there will be 40598 people in the population.

40598.017 has to come down to 40598 because there isn't 17% of a person.
