Given -
Population [tex]= 300[/tex]
Net growth in population in the next year [tex]= 12[/tex] %
New population [tex]=[/tex] Existing population + (Net growth in population [tex]*[/tex]Existing Population
Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -
New population[tex]= 300 + ( \frac{12}{100} *300)\\= 300 + 36\\= 336\\[/tex]
Hence, there are total [tex]336[/tex] butter flies.
