Solution:
we are given that
The state of New Jersey has a population of about 8.9 million and its area is about 8700 mi².
we have been asked to find the population density of New Jersey?
As we know the population density is defined as the population per square unit of area.
Population=8.9 million=8900000
Area=8700 mi².
Hence population density can be given as
[tex] Population \ density=\frac{8900000}{87000} \approx 1023 [/tex]
The population density of New Jersey 1023.
