Answer:

The Percentage increase in Population is 110.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

We know

The Population in 2018 = 363,844,490

The Population in 1950 = 172,602,624

 

The Population increased = The Population in 2018 - The Population in 1950  

                                                    = 363,844,490 - 172,602,624

                                                     = 191,241,866

To find the percentage  increase in the population

                            =( The Population increased/The Population in 1950)100%

                            = (191,241,866/172,602,624)100%

                            = (1.107989)100%

                            = 110.7989%

                             = 110.8%
