10 % is equivalent to 0.10.

That is 7,500,000,000 + 0.10 * 7,500,000,000

= 7,500,000,000 + 750,000,000

= 8,250,000,000.

Answer 2

8,250,000,000

Explanation:

The current population is 7500 000 000

then, let's get 10% 0f 7500 000 000

which is 10/100×7500000000

0.1×7500000000= 750,000,000

therefore, in the next 10years the population will be

750,000,000+7500,000,000

in 2028 the population will be 8,250,000,000
