The population in a 50 square mile area is 200 people. What is the population density?

Sagot :

This is a simple calculation.

Typically you convert square miles into square kilometers. But you can apply this formula to both imperial and metric systems.

Formula:

[tex]Population Density = Population/Land Area[/tex]

Here is what your equation looks like

[tex]Population density = 200/50^2[/tex]

Calculate that and you get 0.08 people per square mile.
