Answer:

ELM Ridge is growing at a faster rate

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the solution, we calculate the growth rate of both cities

Given :

Nadia : Preston

Population Last Year 5,589

This Year 5,702

Growth rate:

[(this year population - Last year population) / last year population] * 100%

[(5702 - 5589) / 5589] * 100%

(113 / 5589) * 100%

= 0.0202182 * 100%

= 2.02%

ELM Ridge

Last Year 1,870

This Year 1,926

Growth rate:

[(this year population - Last year population) / last year population] * 100%

[(1926 - 1870) / 1870] * 100%

(56 / 1870) * 100%

= 0.0299465 * 100%

= 2.994%

= 3%
