Answer: Growth rate = CBR minus CDR (per 1000 population).
- 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)
