the population of a town increased from 1 , 75000 to 2 , 62500 in a decade . what is the average percent increase of population per year ?
explanation : increase in the population in 10 years = 2 , 62500 - 1 , 75000 = 87500 % ncrease in the population in 10 years = ( 87500 / 175000 ) × 100 = 8750 / 175 = 50 % average % increase of population per year = 50 % / 10 = 5 % answer : option c
multiply(divide(divide(subtract(add(2, divide(62500, multiply(const_1000, const_100))), add(1, divide(75000, multiply(const_1000, const_100)))), const_10), add(1, divide(75000, multiply(const_1000, const_100)))), const_100)
