Question

The total population of a certain city in 2055 BS was 2,60,000. In that year 3800 people cane to the city for settlement and 3000 people migrated out from the city. Calculate the in migration rate and gross migration rate of the city

Answer 1

14.6

26.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

In migrant = 3800

Out migrant = 3000

Population = 260000

The in migration rate :

(Number of in migrants / total pupulation) * 1000

(3800 / 260000) * 1000

0.0146153 * 1000

= 14.6

The gross migration rate :

(Number of in migrants + number if out migrants) / total pupulation) * 1000

((3000 + 3800) / 260000) * 1000

0.0261538 * 100%

= 26.15
