If population increases from 60 lakh to 75 lakh, what is the absolute increase?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 15 lakh

The direct answer is B: the absolute increase is 15 lakh. To find absolute increase, subtract the initial population from the final population. Here, final population minus initial population equals 75 lakh − 60 lakh = 15 lakh. The unit remains lakh because both given values use the same unit. Option B is correct because it is the actual difference between the two populations. Option A is wrong because 75 − 60 is not 10. Option C is wrong because 20 lakh is not the difference between the given values. Option D is wrong because 75 lakh is the final population, not the amount by which the population increased. Do not divide or calculate a percentage when the question asks for absolute increase. Memory cue: absolute increase = final value − initial value.
