Question

assume the unit population density of a state is approximately 104 people per mi2. if this state has 196,352 square miles, what is the population of the state? people

Answer 1

Given:

The unit population density of a state is 104 people per mi².

Also, the state has 196,352mi².

Therefore, the population of the state will be the multiplication of the unit population density and the square miles of the state.

Hence,

$\frac{104people}{miles^2^{}}\times196352miles^2=20,420,608people$

Therefore, the population of the state is 20,420,608 people.
