Summarizing questions

I was wondering what it does it mean when I'm asked to summarize a question? Does it mean to make the question shorter by summarizing it with a question mark (?) at the end or answering the question and make reference (Mentioning) to the question in the answer?


For example: Question: How many people are currently living in New York City? Summarized question: What is the current population of New York City?


Or (Another example that includes answer to question): There are 8 million people currently living in New York City?


Not sure. Your help would be great. Thanks.

This is awkward and not natural. The yellow part would be better as what it means.
