If natural increase is +14 per thousand and total growth is +6 per thousand, what is the net migration rate?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: -8 per thousand

The relationship between the rates is total growth = natural increase + net migration. To find net migration, subtract natural increase from total growth. Because the total growth is smaller than the natural increase here, the result must be negative. This indicates that more people are leaving than entering.

Using the values, net migration is \(6-14=-8\) per thousand. The negative 8 per thousand reduces the natural increase of 14 to a total growth of 6 per thousand. A positive 8 would increase the total to 22, not 6. Therefore, the correct choice is option B, negative 8 per thousand.
