Answer:

3,131,313

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X represent the number of cases with diabetes in 1973.

An increase of 396% in diabetes cases in 1973 would be;

12.4 million = 396/100 × X

12.4 million = 396X/100

Cross multiply

12.4 million × 100 = 396X

X = [(12.4 million × 100) / 396]

X = 3,131,313

Therefore, the number of diabetes cases in 1973 is 3,131,313 cases
