Answer 1

Answer:

the population this year is 15 I think

Step-by-step explanation:

the population this year is 15 I think because 60 = 100% so if you divide 60 into two you will get 30 / 50%. then divide 30 again which would be 15 and that's 25 percent.  only if you know what 60 divides by 2 and then 30 divided by 2.
