    Population of moose in the national park = 240

    percentage increase in the population of moose in the national park after a year = 25%

    Then

    Amount of increase in the population

    Of moose in the national park in a year = (25/100) * 240

    = 240/4

    = 60

    So

    The number of moose present after 1 year

    in the national park = 240 + 60

    = 300

    So from the above deduction we can easily conclude that the number of moose in the national park after a year is 300.

    Hi

    Initial population = 100%

    Final population = 100% + 25% = 125%

    240 ⇒ 100%

    x ⇒ 125%

    100x = 125·240

    100x = 30,000

    x = (30,000) / 100

    x = 300

    Answer: The number of moose in National Park is 300
