What is the percentage rise in population of State B from the year 2003 to 2004 ........

Explanation:

As we need to find the percentage rise in the population, we use Percentage Increase =
[(final – Initial) /Initial] x 100
= Difference/Initial x 100
Percentage Increase = (Population of state B during 2004 – 2003/ 2003) x 100 By substituting the values in the formulas,
= [(70 – 60)/60 x 100] =10/60 x 100
= 1/6 x 100
= 16.66%
Therefore, there has been a rise in 16.66% of the population during the year 2003 and 2004 in State B.
