Answer: 209.7152

Step-by-step explanation: You take your number, 20, and do it plus itself times .6. It would end up looking like this: 20+20*.6=32 32+32*.6=51.2 ... until you get to 5 times which is 209.7152

Solution here,

initial population=20

By the question, thepopulation increases by 60% in 1 year.

i.e. after 1 year population will be 20+60% of 20

=20+(60/100)×20=20+0.6×20=20+12=32

Now,

after 2 years population will be 32+60% of 32=51.2

after 3 years population will be 51.2+60% of 51.2

=81.92

after 4 years population will be 81.92+60% of 81.92

=131.072

after 5 years population will be 131.072+60%of131.072=209.7152
