A country has a natural increase of 200000 and net migration of 100000. What is the total population change?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 300000

Total population change has two main components: natural increase and net migration. Natural increase is the balance between births and deaths, while net migration is the balance between people entering and leaving. When both components are stated as positive gains, they are added to find the overall change. This gives the change during the period, not necessarily the final population.

Here, total change = natural increase + net migration = 200000 + 100000 = 300000 people. Therefore, option C, or 3 lakh, is correct. The answer is not 1 lakh or 2 lakh because both components contribute to growth. It is also not 4 lakh, since no additional component has been provided. The calculation assumes net migration is positive as stated.
