    Answer:

    314,880

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If the population decreases by 1.6% per year, this means the population is 98.4% of the population of the previous year. What this means is we can multiply the current population, 320,000, by 98.4/100, as 98.4/100 is equivalent to 98.4%. This gets us 314,880.
