To write:

Calculating the time at which population growth is highest as a percentage of the population.

Introduction:

In human geography or biology, population growth is the rise in the count of people or individuals who lives in a state or territory. The rate of population change is calculated by given formula:

$\frac{dN}{dt}=rN\frac{(K-N)}{K}$

Where, $dN/dt$ = rate of population change,

r = per capita rate of population growth,

N = population size, and

K = carrying capacity.
