A country's total growth rate is 0.2 percent, but one province grows at 2.5 percent. Which conclusion is correct?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The national average can hide regional differences

Answer: A. The national growth rate is an aggregate figure calculated for the whole country. It combines the populations and growth experiences of all provinces, so it is possible for one province to grow by 2.5% while other provinces grow slowly, remain stable, or decline. Their combined result may be only 0.2%. A is correct because an average describes the overall pattern but may conceal important regional variation. B is wrong because a national average does not mean every province has the same rate. C is wrong because provincial populations contribute to the national total; their growth does affect the national figure, even if the effect is weighted by population size. D is wrong because different regional rates do not make the national rate incorrect. Memory cue: an average is a summary, not a mirror of every individual region.
