If there are 2,500 births, 2,800 deaths, 1,100 in-migrants, and 400 out-migrants, what will the total population change be?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: An increase of 400

The direct answer is A: the population increases by 400. Solve the two parts separately. First calculate natural change: births minus deaths = 2,500 − 2,800 = −300, so deaths exceed births by 300 and the natural change is a decrease of 300. Next calculate net migration: in-migration minus out-migration = 1,100 − 400 = 700, so migration adds 700 people. Combine the results: −300 + 700 = +400. Thus the final population change is an increase of 400. B gives only the natural change and ignores migration. C gives only the net migration and ignores the excess deaths. D incorrectly adds all four figures, treating deaths and out-migration as additions. Memory cue: total change = (births − deaths) + (in-migration − out-migration).
