In 2012, registered foreigners were 4% of the total population. From 2000 to 2012, the total population increased by 55% and the number of registered foreigners increased by 670%. Hence, from 2000 to 2012 the number of unregistered foreigners increased by
Options:
A .  1.265 million
B .  0.265 Million
C .  2.265 million
D .  1.045 million
Answer: Option A
:
A
In 2012, total registered foreigners = 2.7 million.
Therefore total population = (2.74)×100= 67.5 million
So, total population in 2000 = 67.51.55= 43.5 million
Total registeredforeigners in 2000 =2.77.7= 0.35 million
In 2012, total registeredforeigners = 4% and total foreigners = 6%
Total unregisteredforeigners = 2%
Total unregistered population in 2012 = 67.5×0.02 = 1.35 million.
Total unregistered population in 2000 = 43.5×0.01-0.35 = 1.35 million.
Hence the required increase = 1.35 - 0.085 = 1.265 million.
