What is the growth rate for a country that has 84,000 births and 55,000 deaths per year
along with 24,000 people who immigrate in
and 5,000 people who emigrate out? The
total population is 23,000,000.

The country has an annual growth rate of 0.2%.

Explanation:

If the country has 84,000 births and 55,000 deaths per year, as well as 24,000 people who immigrate to the country and 5,000 people who migrate abroad, the gross annual population growth is 48,000 people (84,000 - 55,000 + 24,000 - 5,000).

Now, to determine what percentage this growth implies, the following cross-calculation must be performed:

23,000,000 = 100

48,000 = X

((48,000 x 100) / 23,000,000) = X

0.2 = X

Thus, the country has an annual growth rate of 0.2%.
