Population Age Group Percentages and Ratios

The video tutorial explains how to use Garner's 2000 population census data to calculate the percentage of different age groups, the dependency ratio, and the total population. It provides a step-by-step guide on calculating the percentage of age groups 0-16, 22-59, and 60+, and explains the formula for finding the dependency ratio using these percentages. Finally, it demonstrates how to sum the populations of different age groups to find the total population.

What are the three main tasks outlined in Garner's 2000 population census analysis?

• Calculate the percentage of each age group, dependency ratio, and total population.

• Calculate the birth rate, death rate, and migration rate.

• Determine the average income, employment rate, and literacy rate.

• Assess the urbanization rate, industrial growth, and agricultural output.

How is the percentage of the age group 0 to 16 calculated?

• By subtracting the age group population from the total population.

• By dividing the age group population by the total population and multiplying by 100.

• By adding the age group population to the total population.

• By multiplying the age group population by the total population.

What is the percentage of the population aged 0 to 16?

• 4.6%

• 58%

• 53.4%

• 42%

Which formula is used to calculate the percentage of the age group 22 to 59?

• Age group population times total population divided by 100.

• Age group population minus total population times 100.

• Age group population plus total population times 100.

• Age group population divided by total population times 100.

What is the percentage of the population aged 22 to 59?

• 53.4%

• 4.6%

• 42%

• 58%

How is the percentage of the age group 60+ calculated?

• By dividing the age group population by the total population and multiplying by 100.

• By subtracting the age group population from the total population.

• By adding the age group population to the total population.

• By multiplying the age group population by the total population.

What is the percentage of the population aged 60 and above?

• 42%

• 58%

• 53.4%

• 4.6%

How is the dependency ratio calculated?

• By dividing the number of dependents by the number of workers and multiplying by 100.

• By adding the number of dependents to the number of workers.

• By multiplying the number of dependents by the number of workers.

• By subtracting the number of workers from the number of dependents.

What is the dependency ratio in the year 2000?

• 4.6%

• 53.4%

• 58%

• 42%

How is the total population calculated?

• By subtracting the population of the youngest age group.

• By dividing the population of the oldest age group by the total population.

• By adding the populations of all age groups.

• By multiplying the populations of all age groups.
