If an area has positive natural increase but net migration is more negative than that what will total population change be like?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Total population may decline

Direct answer: A, total population may decline. Use the formula total change = natural increase + net migration. Suppose natural increase is +500 but net migration is −700. The result is +500 + (−700) = −200, so the population decreases by 200. The negative migration is larger in magnitude than the positive natural increase and therefore outweighs it. A is correct; “may” is appropriate because the exact result depends on the values, but under the stated condition the total change is negative. B is wrong because positive natural increase alone does not guarantee overall growth. C is wrong because stability would require the two values to cancel exactly. D is wrong because migration is included directly in the total-change calculation. Memory cue: compare magnitudes after keeping the signs; the larger negative term can turn growth into decline.
