Answer 1

Answer:

303,1880000000

Step-by-step explanation:

Population density in Monaco =Number of people/Area

33000/0.75

40000

Population density in New York =Number of people/Area

19,000,000/47000

404.25

Rounding=404

Population density in Monaco if Monaco had the population density of New York=Number of people/Area

404.25 =Number of people/0.75

404.25*0.75=Number of people

Number of people=303.18

Rounding=303

Population density in New York if New York had the population density of Monaco=Number of people/Area

40000=Number of people/47,000

40000*47000=Number of people

Number of people=1880000000
