To find the combined population of Ripley and West Union, we need to add their populations together. The population of Ripley is 1,750 and the population of West Union is 3,241.
Adding these two populations together:
1,750 + 3,241 = 4,991
Therefore, the combined population of Ripley and West Union is 4,991.
To find out how much greater this combined population is than the population of Georgetown, we subtract the population of Georgetown from the combined population of Ripley and West Union.
4,991 - 4,331 = 660
Therefore, the combined population of Ripley and West Union is 660 greater than the population of Georgetown.
