Question

What is the formula of Population Density

Answer 1

Answer:

To calculate the population density, you will divide the population by the size of the area. Thus, Population Density = Number of People/Land Area. The unit of land area should be square miles or square kilometers. You can use square feet or meters if you are finding the density of a smallish space.

Answer 2

Answer:

The formula for calculating population density is- Total number of people/ land area.

Explanation:

• Population density measures the population of a country or any geographical region per unit of its area.
• It is usually quoted in per square kilometer and sometimes in per square mile.
• India has a high population density of 451 per square kilometer (as of 2021). Having a high population density is not preferable as it means that the resources are less as compared to the population.
• The higher the population, the higher will be the population density. And the lower the land area, the higher will be the population density, other things being equal.
