Step-by-step explanation:

3.70 × 10⁹ / 4.46 × 10⁷ = 82.959... = 8.30 x 10¹ people/km²

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to be careful what you are typing.

the way you wrote the numbers Asia would be a tiny place with very few people.

but I think you meant to say :

area is 4.46 × 10⁷ km²

with 3.70 × 10⁹ people.

people / km² = 3.70/4.46 × 10⁹/10⁷ =

= 0.829596413... × 10² = 82.9596413... =

= 82.96 people/km²
