Population density & demographics

Answers and reasoning. Review before teaching.

  1. 1. A region has a population of 1691 people and a land area of 19 km². Calculate its population density.

    89 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 1691 ÷ 19 = 89 people/km².

  2. 2. A region has a population of 1944 people and a land area of 18 km². Calculate its population density.

    108 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 1944 ÷ 18 = 108 people/km².

  3. 3. A region has a population of 1605 people and a land area of 15 km². Calculate its population density.

    107 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 1605 ÷ 15 = 107 people/km².

  4. 4. A region has a population of 1859 people and a land area of 13 km². Calculate its population density.

    143 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 1859 ÷ 13 = 143 people/km².

  5. 5. A region has a population of 594 people and a land area of 9 km². Calculate its population density.

    66 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 594 ÷ 9 = 66 people/km².

  6. 6. 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.

  7. 7. A region has a population of 1245 people and a land area of 15 km². Calculate its population density.

    83 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 1245 ÷ 15 = 83 people/km².

  8. 8. A region has a population of 292 people and a land area of 2 km². Calculate its population density.

    146 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 292 ÷ 2 = 146 people/km².

  9. 9. A region has a population of 615 people and a land area of 5 km². Calculate its population density.

    123 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 615 ÷ 5 = 123 people/km².

  10. 10. A region has a population of 705 people and a land area of 15 km². Calculate its population density.

    47 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 705 ÷ 15 = 47 people/km².

  11. 11. A region has a population of 1240 people and a land area of 20 km². Calculate its population density.

    62 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 1240 ÷ 20 = 62 people/km².

  12. 12. A region has a population of 1170 people and a land area of 13 km². Calculate its population density.

    90 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 1170 ÷ 13 = 90 people/km².
