In the same example, where is absolute growth higher?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: In the city

Correct answer: D, in the city. Absolute growth means the actual number added, not the percentage increase. The village changed from 200 to 300, so its absolute growth is 300 − 200 = 100 people. The city changed from 20,000 to 21,000, so its absolute growth is 21,000 − 20,000 = 1,000 people. Thus, the city added ten times as many people as the village, even though its percentage growth was lower. Option A is wrong because the village has the higher percentage rate, not the higher absolute increase. Option B is wrong because 100 and 1,000 are different. Option C is wrong because both populations changed. Option D is correct because 1,000 is greater than 100. Memory cue: absolute growth asks “how many people were added?”
