# Volume of wood

Every year, at the same time, an increase in the volume of wood in the forest is measured. The increase is regularly p% compared to the previous year. If in 10 years the volume of wood has increased by 10%, what is the number p?

Result

p =  0.958 %

#### Solution:

$(1+p/100)^{10}=1 + 10/100 \ \\ (1+p/100)^{10}=1.1 \ \\ \ \\ p=100 \cdot \ (\sqrt[10]{ 1.1 }-1) \doteq 0.9577=0.958 \%$
