A region records 4800 births, 3100 deaths, 900 in-migrants, and 1400 out-migrants. What is the total population change?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Increase of 1200

Total population change combines natural change and migration. Natural change is births minus deaths: \(4800-3100=1700\). Migration change is in-migrants minus out-migrants: \(900-1400=-500\), meaning there is a net loss of 500 people through migration.

Adding both parts gives \(1700+(-500)=1200\). Thus the region’s population increases by 1,200 people, so option A is correct. Choosing 1,700 would count births and deaths but ignore the people who left. The negative migration balance reduces the natural increase; it does not reverse it completely in this case.
