उत्तर
The population of the city decreased from 25000 to 24500.
Total population decreased = 25000 - 24500
= 500
Percentage of population decrease = `"Total population decreased"/"Actual population before decrease"`
= `500/25000 xx 100`
= 2%
Therefore, the population of the city has decreased by 2%.
