If a city's population increases by 15 percent while the number of schools remains unchanged, which effect is likely?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Student pressure per school may increase

When a city’s population grows but the number and capacity of schools stay unchanged, the existing schools may have to serve more children. If the number of school-age children also rises, more students may be placed in each school or classroom. This can increase pressure on rooms, teachers, furniture, and other facilities.

The exact impact depends on the age structure of the new population, so the result is described as likely rather than certain. Nevertheless, unchanged school capacity combined with population growth commonly increases demand and student pressure. Therefore, option A is the best answer. The other choices contradict this reasonable population-service relationship.
