Answer to Problem 30A
Correct answer :
The correct answer is option (A) 0 percent.
Explanation of Solution
Explanation/justification for the correct answer :
Data given:
Birth rate: 11 in year 2004 that is 11 live births per 1000 people in 2004
Death rate: 11 in year 2004 that is 11 deaths per 1000 people in 2004
Population growth rate (PGR) = [(Births-Death)/1000]*100
= [(11-11)/1000]*100
= [(0)/1000]*100
= 0*100
= 0%
Hence, PGR of Georgia in 2004 is 0%.
