Answer:

Honduras

Explanation:

We apply the formula that is: Total Population / Area

So...

Honduras:

6,975,200 / 43,368.17 = 160 people per squared mile

Ireland:

4,015,700 / 27,135.25 = 147 people per squared mile

Pay attention to the area, if it is in Kilometers or Miles, the results will change.
