The correct Answer is:
To find the population of Sikar after three years given the initial population and the percentage changes each year, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the initial population The initial population of Sikar is given as 60,000. ### Step 2: Calculate the population after the first year In the first year, there is a 20% increase in the population. - To calculate the increase: \[ \text{Increase} = \text{Initial Population} \times \frac{20}{100} = 60000 \times 0.20 = 12000 \] - Therefore, the population at the end of the first year: \[ \text{Population after 1st year} = \text{Initial Population} + \text{Increase} = 60000 + 12000 = 72000 \] ### Step 3: Calculate the population after the second year In the second year, there is a 25% increase on the new population (72,000). - To calculate the increase: \[ \text{Increase} = 72000 \times \frac{25}{100} = 72000 \times 0.25 = 18000 \] - Therefore, the population at the end of the second year: \[ \text{Population after 2nd year} = 72000 + 18000 = 90000 \] ### Step 4: Calculate the population after the third year In the third year, there is a 30% decrease on the new population (90,000). - To calculate the decrease: \[ \text{Decrease} = 90000 \times \frac{30}{100} = 90000 \times 0.30 = 27000 \] - Therefore, the population at the end of the third year: \[ \text{Population after 3rd year} = 90000 - 27000 = 63000 \] ### Final Result The population of Sikar after three years is **63,000**. ---
