Population density & demographics

Answers and reasoning. Review before teaching.

  1. 1. A region has a population of 336 people and a land area of 12 km². Calculate its population density.

    28 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 336 ÷ 12 = 28 people/km².

  2. 2. A region has a population of 177 people and a land area of 3 km². Calculate its population density.

    59 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 177 ÷ 3 = 59 people/km².

  3. 3. A region has a population of 126 people and a land area of 2 km². Calculate its population density.

    63 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 126 ÷ 2 = 63 people/km².

  4. 4. A region has a population of 2300 people and a land area of 23 km². Calculate its population density.

    100 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 2300 ÷ 23 = 100 people/km².

  5. 5. A region has a population of 2040 people and a land area of 24 km². Calculate its population density.

    85 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 2040 ÷ 24 = 85 people/km².

  6. 6. A region has a population of 252 people and a land area of 7 km². Calculate its population density.

    36 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 252 ÷ 7 = 36 people/km².

  7. 7. A region has a population of 2860 people and a land area of 22 km². Calculate its population density.

    130 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 2860 ÷ 22 = 130 people/km².

  8. 8. A region has a population of 1056 people and a land area of 24 km². Calculate its population density.

    44 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 1056 ÷ 24 = 44 people/km².

  9. 9. A region has a population of 1660 people and a land area of 20 km². Calculate its population density.

    83 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 1660 ÷ 20 = 83 people/km².

  10. 10. A region has a population of 924 people and a land area of 22 km². Calculate its population density.

    42 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 924 ÷ 22 = 42 people/km².

  11. 11. A region has a population of 38 people and a land area of 2 km². Calculate its population density.

    19 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 38 ÷ 2 = 19 people/km².

  12. 12. A region has a population of 960 people and a land area of 16 km². Calculate its population density.

    60 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 960 ÷ 16 = 60 people/km².
