Out of 10 countries -- Country 1 through Country 10 -- Country 9 has the highest gross domestic product (GDP), and Country 10 has the highest GDP per capita. GDP per capita is the GDP of a country divided by its population. The table below provides the following data about Country 1 through Country 8 for the year 2024. Column 1 gives the country's identity. Column 2 gives the country's GDP as a fraction of the GDP of Country 9. Column 3 gives the country's GDP per capita as a fraction of the GDP per capita of Country 10. Column 4 gives the country's annual GDP growth rate. Column 5 gives the country's annual population growth rate. Assume that the GDP growth rates and population growth rates of the countries will remain constant for the next three years.
