    Round to the nearest whole number, because people cannot be decimals!

    2006: 79318

    2007: 79318 (0.88) = 69800

    2008: 69800 (0.88) = 61424

    2009: 61424 (0.88) = 54053

    2010: 54053 (0.88) = 47567

    2011: 47567 (0.88) = 41859

    2012: 41859 (0.88) = 36836

    2013: 36836 (0.88) = 32416

    2014: 32416 (0.88) = 28526

    2015: 28526 (0.88) = 25103

    Therefore the population in Camden, New Jersey will be 25103 in the year 2015. If you want to be more precise, do the same thing but don't round any number till the final answer. Also be sure to check over me as it is easy to make a mistake during these calculations.
