उत्तर

The number of malaria patients admitted in a hospital in 2001 = 4375

Rate of decrement of malaria patients = 8%

Time period = 2 yr i.e.2003 – 2001 = 2 yr

Let the number of patients in 2003 be A.

By using formula,

`A = P(1 - R/100)^T`

= `4375(1 - 8/100)^2`

= `4375 xx 23/25 xx 23/25`

= 7 × 23 × 23

= 3703

Hence, the number of patients in 2003 was 3703.
