If last decade's population of an area was fifty lakh and this decade's population is sixty lakh, what is the absolute growth?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Ten lakh

Direct answer: A, ten lakh. Absolute growth means the actual numerical increase between two population figures. It is not the later population and it is not a percentage. Step 1: identify the later population, 60 lakh. Step 2: identify the earlier population, 50 lakh. Step 3: subtract earlier from later: 60 lakh − 50 lakh = 10 lakh. Therefore, the population increased by ten lakh during the decade. Option A is correct. Option B, twenty lakh, results from an incorrect subtraction. Option C is only the earlier population, so it does not show the increase. Option D is the later population, not the change. Memory cue: absolute growth = final population − initial population.
