In a village of 50 persons, 10 immigrated, 25 died and 5 emigrated in year. Determine the total population
10
20
30
50

Explanation

Emigrants are people who move in to settle in a particular region (increasing the new population)
Immigrants are people who move out of a particular region to another place. (Reducing the old place of residence)

50 + 10 = 60 new population

Less number of dead people and immigrants;  = 30

 60 - 30 = 30
