1)B, since End population of Territory C in 1990~ 3000*1000
In 2010=4500*1000
So the Increase is (4500-2900)*1000= 1600*1000
While change in total population from 1990 to 2010= 22500000-17000000= 5500*1000 So now 1600*1000~
.3(5500*1000) = 30%
2)A,In 2010 the total of A,B,&C is (7250+5500+4500)*1000= 17250*1000,and total is 22500000,so % is 17250/22500 * 100=76.6%
