To find out how many finches the population grew by each year, we need to divide the total increase in the population by the number of years.
In this case, the finch population increased by 75 finches in 3 years. To find the growth per year, we divide 75 by 3.
75 finches / 3 years = 25 finches per year
Therefore, the finch population grew by 25 finches each year.
