Population density & demographics

Answers and reasoning. Review before teaching.

  1. 1. A region has a population of 2800 people and a land area of 20 km². Calculate its population density.

    140 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 2800 ÷ 20 = 140 people/km².

  2. 2. A region has a population of 238 people and a land area of 14 km². Calculate its population density.

    17 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 238 ÷ 14 = 17 people/km².

  3. 3. A region has a population of 780 people and a land area of 10 km². Calculate its population density.

    78 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 780 ÷ 10 = 78 people/km².

  4. 4. A region has a population of 1937 people and a land area of 13 km². Calculate its population density.

    149 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 1937 ÷ 13 = 149 people/km².

  5. 5. A region has a population of 1740 people and a land area of 15 km². Calculate its population density.

    116 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 1740 ÷ 15 = 116 people/km².

  6. 6. A region has a population of 1128 people and a land area of 12 km². Calculate its population density.

    94 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 1128 ÷ 12 = 94 people/km².

  7. 7. A region has a population of 854 people and a land area of 7 km². Calculate its population density.

    122 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 854 ÷ 7 = 122 people/km².

  8. 8. A region has a population of 2706 people and a land area of 22 km². Calculate its population density.

    123 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 2706 ÷ 22 = 123 people/km².

  9. 9. A region has a population of 1035 people and a land area of 9 km². Calculate its population density.

    115 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 1035 ÷ 9 = 115 people/km².

  10. 10. A region has a population of 74 people and a land area of 2 km². Calculate its population density.

    37 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 74 ÷ 2 = 37 people/km².

  11. 11. A region has a population of 740 people and a land area of 5 km². Calculate its population density.

    148 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 740 ÷ 5 = 148 people/km².

  12. 12. A region has a population of 240 people and a land area of 8 km². Calculate its population density.

    30 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 240 ÷ 8 = 30 people/km².
