Population density & demographics

Answers and reasoning. Review before teaching.

  1. 1. A region has a population of 404 people and a land area of 4 km². Calculate its population density.

    101 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 404 ÷ 4 = 101 people/km².

  2. 2. A region has a population of 1106 people and a land area of 14 km². Calculate its population density.

    79 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 1106 ÷ 14 = 79 people/km².

  3. 3. A region has a population of 282 people and a land area of 6 km². Calculate its population density.

    47 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 282 ÷ 6 = 47 people/km².

  4. 4. A region has a population of 1380 people and a land area of 15 km². Calculate its population density.

    92 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 1380 ÷ 15 = 92 people/km².

  5. 5. A region has a population of 1848 people and a land area of 24 km². Calculate its population density.

    77 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 1848 ÷ 24 = 77 people/km².

  6. 6. A region has a population of 840 people and a land area of 14 km². Calculate its population density.

    60 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 840 ÷ 14 = 60 people/km².

  7. 7. A region has a population of 551 people and a land area of 19 km². Calculate its population density.

    29 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 551 ÷ 19 = 29 people/km².

  8. 8. A region has a population of 180 people and a land area of 12 km². Calculate its population density.

    15 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 180 ÷ 12 = 15 people/km².

  9. 9. A region has a population of 434 people and a land area of 7 km². Calculate its population density.

    62 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 434 ÷ 7 = 62 people/km².

  10. 10. A region has a population of 75 people and a land area of 5 km². Calculate its population density.

    15 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 75 ÷ 5 = 15 people/km².

  11. 11. A region has a population of 320 people and a land area of 10 km². Calculate its population density.

    32 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 320 ÷ 10 = 32 people/km².

  12. 12. A region has a population of 1568 people and a land area of 14 km². Calculate its population density.

    112 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 1568 ÷ 14 = 112 people/km².
