The population grew from 3600 to 4800 in 3 years. That is a growth of 1200 on 3600 during three year span.

Therefore, the rate of growth for three years has been constant.

The rate of growth during the next three years will also be the same.

Therefore, the population will grow from 4800 by 4800*13= 1600

Hence, the population three years from now will be 4800 + 1600 = 6400

The mathematical formula for calculating compound interest depends on several factors. These factors include the amount of money deposited called the principal, the annual interest rate (in decimal form), the number of times the money is compounded per year, and the number of years the money is left in the bank.

 FV=p1+rnnt

FV = Future value of the Deposit

p = Principal or Amount of Money deposited

r = Annual Interest Rate (in decimal form )

n = No of times compounded per year

t = time in years

FV=40001+0.0644(5)= 5387.42

The Ezra Cup is a popular polo tournament conducted annually in India. The Calcutta Polo Club runs this oldest and first ever Polo Trophy. The first Ezra Cup was held in 1880. After a period of inactivity, it has now been revived by Mr. Keshav Bangur, Calcutta Polo Club's president.

Let the numbers be 3x, 3x + 3 and 3x + 6.
Then,
3x + (3x + 3) + (3x + 6) = 72
9x = 63
x = 7
Largest number = 3x + 6 = 27.

=> Second largest number = 27 - 3 = 24
