  1. The population of a city is 250000. It is increasing at the rate of 2% every year. The growth in the population after 2 yr is ?
    1. 2500
    2. 10000
    3. 252000
    4. 10100
Correct Option: D

Population after 2 yr
= P (1 + R/100)2
= 250000 (1 + 2/100)2
⇒ 250000 x (51/50) x (51/50) = 260100
∴ Growth = 260100 - 250000 = 10100
