The population of a city increases by 1.5% per year. If this year's population is
288,000, what will next year's population be, to the nearest individual?

Answer :

Answer: 292,320

​

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the increase, 1.5% of 288,000:

1.5/100 = 0.015

288,000 * 0.015=  4,320

Add the increase to the current population:

288,000+4,320=  292,320
