Question

There are an estimated 11,025 trees of species A in an area of 3,150 hectares. What is the population density of the tree species? The population density of the trees is _ per hectare.

Answer 1

11025 trees in 3150 hectacres
11025/3150=trees/hectacre
3.5 trees per hectacre

Answer 2

Population density is the average number of organisms that make up a population per unit area or unit volume.

As given in the question; Number of organism (trees of species A) = 11,025 and land area = 3,150 hectares.

Population Density = Number of organism / Land Area = 11025/3150= 3.5 trees/hectare.

Therefore, the population density of the trees is 3.5 trees per hectare.
