If there are 400 births and 600 deaths what will natural change be?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Decrease of 200

Direct answer: D, a decrease of 200. Natural change is found by subtracting deaths from births: 400 − 600 = −200. The minus sign is important. It shows that deaths exceed births by 200, so the area experiences a natural decrease of 200 people during the period. Option A is wrong because it reverses the direction and treats the difference as an increase. Option B is wrong because adding 400 and 600 gives 1000, not natural change. Option C is wrong because births and deaths are not equal. Option D is correct because it states both the size and direction of the change. This answer concerns natural change only; migration could separately increase or decrease the total population. Memory cue: when deaths are higher, the natural balance is negative.
