Solution

For state B the per cent rise in population from the previous year :

2003-04 = $$\frac{30 - 20}{20} \times 100$$ = 50% [MAX]

2004-05 = $$\frac{35 - 30}{30} \times 100$$ = 16.67%

2005-06 = $$\frac{45 - 35}{35} \times 100$$ = 28.5%

2006-07 = $$\frac{45 - 45}{45} \times 100$$ = 0%

2007-08 = $$\frac{50 - 45}{45} \times 100$$ = 11.11%

Thus, it is maximum for 2004
