In a bio gas plant the population of yeast bacteria

The population of bacteria increases by 19% per annum and 1% due to additional factors, so every year, there is a net increase of 20% in yeast population. Let the population at present be x. Population after 2 years = x × 120/100 × 120/100 = 144x/100 = 1.44x % increase in population = [(1.44x - x)/x] × 100 = 44
