Options:
A .   3 million
B .   4 million

D .   6 million
Answer: Option D
:
D
Let registered foreigners and non-registered foreigners from Bangladesh in 2006 be x and y respectively.
Registered foreigners from Bangladesh in 2012 = 1.331x
Registered foreigners from Bangladesh in 2006 = x = 2.7×0.391.331= 0.79 million
Let z be the total population.
0.79 + y = 0.025z ....(In 2006)
And 1.053 + 0.729y = 0.02z... (In 2012)
Solving for y, y = 5.9 million.
