उत्तर
The consumption of water for human in 1975 = 3850 cu km/yr
The consumption of water for human in 2000 = 6000 cu km/yr
Increase in consumption of water in 1975 to 2000 = 6000 – 3850 = 2150 cu km/yr
In percentage = `2150/3850 xx 100 = 55.84%`
In 25 yr total increase in water consumption = 2150 cu km/yr
∴ Annually, i.e. per year water consumption =`2150/25` = 86 cu km/yr ...[∵ 2000 – 1975 = 25 yr]
∴ In percentage = `86/3850 xx 100`
= `8600/3850`
= 2.23%
