if the population of a country 324,597, the growth rate is .085 what is the projection is 10 years? Now add 1% to the growth rate what is the new projection for 10 years.
If the population of a country 324,597, the growth rate is .085 per annum what is the projection is 10 years?
324597*1.085^10 = 733908.4422960732578296
733,908 people
Now add 1% to the growth rate what is the new projection for 10 years. Do again with a growth rate of 0.095 this time.
324597*1.095^10 = 804425.2486458361955934

That is not many people. I looked up 'least populated countries' and this is what I got.

BUT some of those in the list are not countries! some are just territories that are owned by recognised countries.
Your country might be the Maldives. That is a faily exotic idea. They are a group of ilsands in the Indian Ocean, they are South of India, just north of the equator :))

You could go visit them. :)

I believe your question is worded incorrectly. It looks to me that the growth rate of 8.50% is for the entire 10-year period. Similarly, the 9.5%. Or, your first growth rate of .085 should read 0.0085 or .85% per year. I don't know of any "country" or even an "Island" that grows at 8.5% or 9.5% per year!. Ckeck your book carefully.
