Question

If the world population in 2010 is 6.7 million and the rate of growth is by 1.19 percent per year, what will the estimated world population be by 2050?

Answer 1

I believe the world population should be 6,700,000,000

Ending Population = Beginning Population * (1 + rate)^years

Ending Population = 6,700,000,000 * (1.19)^40

Ending Population = 7,046,172,293,951

or rounded about 7,046,000,000

(About 7.046 billion)
