Given:

Population of the town in 2022 = 4520

Population of the town in 2023 = 5650

Formula used:

Percentage increase in population = (New Population - Old Population) / Old Population × 100

Calculation:

Percentage increase = (5650 - 4520) / 4520 × 100

Percentage increase = 1130 / 4520 × 100

Percentage increase = 0.25 × 100 = 25%

∴ The percentage increase in population is 25%.
