Detailed Solution

The population of a town was 110500. In one year, it increased by 3608 due to new births. However, 8973 persons died or left the town during the year. The final population at the end of the year is 105135.
Here, the population of a town was 110500. In one year, it increased by 3608 due to new births. However, 8973 persons died or left the town during the year.
We shall add the number of new births to the original population of the town and simultaneously deduct the number of persons who died or left the town from the original population of the town.
Therefore, the population of a town at the end of the year is as follows
⇒110500+3608-8973
⇒ (110500+3608)-8973
⇒114108-8973
⇒105135
Thus, the required final population of the town at the end of the year is 105135.
