Answer: 44000
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that the population of Queens increased by 16,075.
Brooklyn's population increased by 11,870 more than the population increase of Queens. This means that Brooklyn's population will be:
= 16075 + 11870
= 27945
The total combined population increase of Queens and Brooklyn from 2010 to 2011 will then be:
= 16075 + 27945
Estimating 16075 gives 16000
Estimating 27945 gives 28000
Adding then together equals
16000 + 28000 = 44000
