If two areas have the same population, which one will have higher density?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The one with smaller area

Direct answer: Option A is correct. Population density is calculated as total population divided by total area: \\(\text{density}=\frac{\text{population}}{\text{area}}\\). If the populations are equal, the numerator is the same for both areas. The area is then decisive: dividing the same population by a smaller area gives a larger value. Therefore, the smaller area has the higher density. Option B is wrong because a larger area spreads the same people more thinly. Option C is wrong because equal, non-zero populations do not produce zero density. Option D is wrong because area is essential to the formula. Memory cue: same people in less space means greater crowding and higher density.
