Which of the following correctly describes the relationship between crude birth rate, crude death rate, and population growth rate?

  • A Growth rate = CBR divided by CDR
  • B Growth rate = CBR multiplied by CDR
  • C Growth rate = CBR minus CDR (per 1000 population)
  • D Growth rate = CDR minus CBR plus migration rate

Correct answer: C. Growth rate = CBR minus CDR (per 1000 population)

Explanation: The natural population growth rate is calculated as Crude Birth Rate (CBR) minus Crude Death Rate (CDR) per 1000 population. Positive values indicate population increase.
