Suppose you have a population of 300 butterflies. If the population experiences a net growth of 12% in the following year, how many butterflies do you have?

Respuesta :

Answer:

There are total [tex]336[/tex] butter flies.

Explanation:

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.
