In a village of 50 persons, 10 immigrated, 25 died and 5 emigrated in year. Determine the total population
Answer Details
To determine the total population, we need to add up all the people who were in the village at the beginning of the year, and subtract those who left or died during the year, and add those who immigrated during the year.
At the beginning of the year, there were 50 people in the village.
10 people immigrated during the year, so we add 10 to the initial population:
50 + 10 = 60
25 people died during the year, so we subtract 25 from the population:
60 - 25 = 35
5 people emigrated during the year, so we subtract 5 from the population:
35 - 5 = 30
Therefore, the total population at the end of the year is 30.
Hence, the answer is 30.
