As per my knowledge 100/.1=1000.

Population= .1 * 100 = 1000.

Population equivalent is a parameter used in the conversion of the contribution of wastes from industrial establishments for accepting into sanitary sewer systems. The strength of industrial sewage is, thus, written as;
Std. BOD5 = (Std. BOD5 of domestic sewage per person per day) x (population equivalent).
Std. BOD5 = (Std. BOD5 of domestic sewage per person per day) x (population equivalent).

I too think it's 1000.

I didn't get it. Please explain anyone.

Population equivalent is equal to (Total bod)/(per capita Bod).

100/0.1=1000.

0.1*1000 = 100 kg/day.
Hence, population is 1000!
Hence, population is 1000!

Bod of 1 day= 0.1 kg but waste per day is 100 so bod = 100*0.1
Waste per day is 100 so 5 days waste = 5*100
And 5 days bod = 5 * 0.1( 0.1= 1 days bod).
Total population = (bod per waste * waste per 5 day)/ 5 days bod.
= (100*0.1 * 5 *100)/( 0.1* 5)
= 10,000.
Waste per day is 100 so 5 days waste = 5*100
And 5 days bod = 5 * 0.1( 0.1= 1 days bod).
Total population = (bod per waste * waste per 5 day)/ 5 days bod.
= (100*0.1 * 5 *100)/( 0.1* 5)
= 10,000.

Correct answer is(B) = 1000.
Because,
Population equivalent = Total B.O.D/B.O.D per head.
(100/0.1) = 1000.
Because,
Population equivalent = Total B.O.D/B.O.D per head.
(100/0.1) = 1000.
