Future Numbers and What They Mean

Today Wednesday 5th January we looked at predicting future populations and using these future populations in the formulae for population density, total births, and infant death. For example, how do we find the population density of Mexico six years from now? First, we use the formula to predict what Mexico's population will be six years from now. Once we have determined what that population number is, we can use that number in the formula for determining population density. The same is true if we are asking how many babies will be born in a particular country 8 years from now. Always determine the future population first and then use that future population in the formula you are solving for. Very easy!

Thanks.
