If the land area of a place is 900,00 square kilometres, and its total population is 120,000,000. What is the population density of the area?
Answer Details
To calculate population density, we divide the total population of the area by its land area.
Population density = Total population / Land area
Here, the land area is given as 900,000 square kilometres and the total population is given as 120,000,000.
Population density = 120,000,000 / 900,000
Population density = 133.33 persons per square kilometre
Therefore, the population density of the area is 133 persons per square kilometre (rounded to the nearest whole number). The closest option is "133 persons per square kilometre".
