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

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,
[tex]\frac{104people}{miles^2^{}}\times196352miles^2=20,420,608people[/tex]Therefore, the population of the state is 20,420,608 people.
