Answer:

hope this helps

Step-by-step explanation:

If you’re talking about 1% net grown (birth - death), the current world population of 7bn will double in approximately 70 years.

the multiplication factor is 1.01 for 1% growth. If you multiply 7Bn by 1.01 about seventy times, the number is 14bn (double if 7 bn)

(harder but more concrete/compound interest formula):

Cure. Pop * (1+rate)^years = 14

7 (1.01)^years = 14

solving……

years =~70
