Population density & demographics

Answers and reasoning. Review before teaching.

  1. 1. A region has a population of 95 people and a land area of 5 km². Calculate its population density.

    19 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 95 ÷ 5 = 19 people/km².

  2. 2. A region has a population of 2412 people and a land area of 18 km². Calculate its population density.

    134 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 2412 ÷ 18 = 134 people/km².

  3. 3. A region has a population of 252 people and a land area of 18 km². Calculate its population density.

    14 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 252 ÷ 18 = 14 people/km².

  4. 4. A region has a population of 117 people and a land area of 3 km². Calculate its population density.

    39 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 117 ÷ 3 = 39 people/km².

  5. 5. A region has a population of 1955 people and a land area of 23 km². Calculate its population density.

    85 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 1955 ÷ 23 = 85 people/km².

  6. 6. A region has a population of 1275 people and a land area of 25 km². Calculate its population density.

    51 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 1275 ÷ 25 = 51 people/km².

  7. 7. A region has a population of 792 people and a land area of 24 km². Calculate its population density.

    33 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 792 ÷ 24 = 33 people/km².

  8. 8. A region has a population of 260 people and a land area of 5 km². Calculate its population density.

    52 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 260 ÷ 5 = 52 people/km².

  9. 9. A region has a population of 160 people and a land area of 16 km². Calculate its population density.

    10 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 160 ÷ 16 = 10 people/km².

  10. 10. A region has a population of 816 people and a land area of 8 km². Calculate its population density.

    102 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 816 ÷ 8 = 102 people/km².

  11. 11. A region has a population of 412 people and a land area of 4 km². Calculate its population density.

    103 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 412 ÷ 4 = 103 people/km².

  12. 12. A region has a population of 1445 people and a land area of 17 km². Calculate its population density.

    85 people/km²

    Population density = population ÷ area = 1445 ÷ 17 = 85 people/km².
