    Explanation:

    It is easier to explain using an example:

    the country's real GDP during year 1 = $1,000,000

    the country's population during year 1 = 1,000 people

    the real GDP per capita = $1,000,000 / 1,000 people = $1,000 per person

    during year 2, both the real GDP and the population grow by 5%

    the country's real GDP during year 2 = $1,050,000

    the country's population during year 2 = 1,050 people

    the real GDP per capita = $1,050,000 / 1,050 people = $1,000 per person

    so there has been no change in the real GDP per capita.
