A community with a population of two million three hundred and ten thousand people living in an area of two thousand three hundred and ten square kilometres has a population density of
10000
10
100
1000
Explanation
The formula for population density is Dp = \(\frac{N}{A}\)
, where: Dp = The population density
N = The total number of individuals in the population
A = The area, which can be measured in any land area unit, such as acres, meters, centimeters, or miles
Given: N = 2,310,000people , A = 2,310 km\(^2\)
Dp = \(\frac{N}{A}\) = Dp = \(\frac{2,310,000}{2,310}\)
= 1,000
