If the population of an area increased from 2000 to 2500, what is the absolute growth?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 500

Direct answer: A, 500. Absolute growth is the numerical difference between the later population and the earlier population. Write the values in order: later population = 2,500 and earlier population = 2,000. Subtract: 2,500 − 2,000 = 500. Thus, the population increased by 500 people. B is the earlier population, not the amount of increase. C is the later or final population, not the difference between the two years. D results from adding the two populations, 2,000 + 2,500, but addition is not the method for finding absolute growth. No rate or percentage is requested, so there is no need to divide by the base population or multiply by 100. Memory cue: absolute growth = final population − initial population.
