The population of a city is 5,50,000 that is increase by 42% by the year 2008 so firstly we have to get the 42% of 5,50,000
For calculate the 42% of 5,50,000 we divided the value of percentage 42% by 100 and then multiply the answer with the value 5,50,000 after that we get the final result :
step 1 : First divide 100 by 42% - 42/100 = 0.42
step 2 : Multiply the answer with 5,50,000 - 0.42*5,50,000 = 2,31,0000
step 3 : Now we know the 42% of population 5,50,000 so we have to add the percentage value with the population value
42% of population + total population
2,31,000+5,50,000 = 7,81,000
The expected population in 2008 is = 7,81,000
