Answer (C)
ReplyDeleteExplanation:
As much As -> For non-countable nouns
As many As -> For countable nouns
Population is uncountable noun. Also 15% population is uncountable noun.
So it ruled out options (A), (D) and (E).
Between (B) and (C), (C) is more concise and avoid the redundancy.
Choose (C).
