How To Compute Population Growth Rate?

Use the formula: Population Growth Rate = ((Population at End – Population at Start) / Population at Start) × 100

Identify the starting population

Identify the ending population

Subtract the starting population from the ending population

Divide the result by the starting population

Multiply by 100 to get the percentage growth rate

If needed, include births, deaths, immigration, and emigration in the population change calculation

Use the formula: Growth Rate = ((Births – Deaths + Immigration – Emigration) / Starting Population) × 100
