The correct Answer is:
To find the total population of the village given that 96% of it is 7680, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between the percentage and the total population. We know that 96% of the total population (let's call it P) is equal to 7680. This can be expressed mathematically as: \[ 0.96 \times P = 7680 \] ### Step 2: Solve for the total population (P). To find P, we can rearrange the equation: \[ P = \frac{7680}{0.96} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the value of P. Now we need to perform the division: \[ P = \frac{7680}{0.96} \] To simplify the calculation, we can multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 100 to avoid dealing with decimals: \[ P = \frac{7680 \times 100}{96} \] \[ P = \frac{768000}{96} \] ### Step 4: Perform the division. Now we will divide 768000 by 96: \[ P = 8000 \] ### Conclusion: The total population of the village is 8000. ---
