Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Regard the last answer. The population of the city has increased by 26% since it was last measured. 100% + 26% = 126% of the previous population.

current population= 126% x Previous population.

44,100= 1.26 x Previous population

To find the previous population, we divide 44,100 by 1.26

Previous population= 44,100/1.26 = 35,000

Hope this helps!
