It messed up a little , so the numbers on the left is the population and on the right is the area of land.

SourMunchkin7806:

I think i can figure out which has more and less, but I just dont know how to find the population density.

Vocaloid:

for each country divide population/area then find the highest result/lowest result

SourMunchkin7806:

Well i did that but Denmark has the highest...is that right, because the US has more people and land.

Vocaloid:

may I see what population densities you get after your calculations?

SourMunchkin7806:

US=29.115 Denmark=124.723 Egypt=3.287

SourMunchkin7806:

I did population divided by area.

Vocaloid:

yup, that's it, so Denmark is highest and Egypt is the lowest

SourMunchkin7806:

Really?! I actually did it right?!

Vocaloid:

yeah
