Every year the population of students in a certain school district is recorded. In 2014, MVCSD had a population of 7,895 students. By 2018, the population of students had increased by approximately 28%. How many students were recorded in the MVCSD in 2018?

Answer 1

`\boxed{2211}`

Data:

Population in 2014 = 7895

% increase = 28 %

Calculations:

28 % = (Increase/Original number) × 100 %

28 = (Increase/7895) × 100

28/100 × 7895 = Increase Multiplied each side by 7895/100

Increase = 2211

`\boxed{ 2211}` students were recorded in the MVCSD in 2018.
