    451.2 million

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We can write the exponential growth equation as ...

    N (t) = 231·e^ (0.0103 (t-1980))

    Then N (2045) = 231·e^ (0.0103 (2045-1980)) = 231·e^0.6695 ≈ 451.2

    The population is predicted to be 451.2 million in 2045 if the growth continues at the same rate.
