If in 2014, the Australias population was 23 246 692, with a growth rate of approximately 1.14%, what was the population in 2015?

Please help! What is the formula and how would you work out this question

Actually, this question is not clear.
If the 1.14% is an average growth rate then the calculation given by jamesh1234 is correct.
If it is an instantaneous growth rate then the calculation is 23246682 * e^(0.0114)
