Explanation / Answer

Per capital real GDP = Real GDP in a year/ Population in that year

So, per capita real GDP in 2010 = Rel GDP in 2010/ Population in 2010 = 5333/150 = 35.55

And, per capita real GDP in 2011 = Rel GDP in 2011/ Population in 2011 = 5757/155 = 37.14

The % change in real GDP between 2010 and 2011 is = (5757 - 5333)/5333 * 100 = 424/5333 * 100 = 0.0797 * 100 = 7.97%

The % change in per capita real GDP between 2010 and 2011 is = (37.14 - 35.55)/35.55 * 100 = 1.59/35.55 * 100 = 0.0447 * 100 = 4.47 %
