If an area has 1000 births, 600 deaths and net migration of 200, what will be the total growth?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 600

Direct answer: Option B, 600. To find total population growth, first calculate natural change by subtracting deaths from births: 1000 − 600 = 400. This means the area gains 400 people through natural change. Net migration is then added because a positive net migration means that 200 more people entered than left. Therefore, total growth = births − deaths + net migration = 1000 − 600 + 200 = 600. Option A, 400, includes only natural change and ignores migration. Option B, 600, includes both natural change and net migration, so it is correct. Option C, 800, results from an incorrect calculation and does not follow the formula. Option D, 1800, adds births, deaths and migration without treating deaths as a decrease. Memory cue: births and in-migration add people; deaths and out-migration remove people.
