Assume that the annual population growth rate is 8% then a country's population will double approximately

8 times in 100 years


11 times in 100 years


10 times in 11 years


Every 11th year over a period of 100 years

Answer 1

Assuming an annual growth rate of 8%, a country's population doubles after approximately 9 years. Hence, in 100 years, its population will double 11 times. So, option d is correct. Every 11th year over a period of 100 years, the population will double once.
