Verified Answer :

You have to divide the number of deer to the square miles.
30000000/3536000 = 8.48 which rounded is 8.

The answer to your question is D. I hope this is the answer that you are looking for and it comes to your help.

Answer;

d. 8 deer per square mile

Explanation;

-Population density is a measurement of population per unit area.

-To calculate the population density, we 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.

-In this case;

Population density = 30,000,000/3,536,000

= 8.48

= 8 (to the nearest whole number)

Thus, the population density will be 8 deer per square mile
