Answer:

1380 people.

Explanation:

We have been given that population density is the number of people per unit of area.


\text{Population density}=\frac{\text{Number of people}}{\text{Area}}


\frac{\text{60 people}}{\text{ km}^2}=\frac{\text{Number of people}}{23\text{ km}^2}


\frac{\text{60 people}}{\text{ km}^2}*23\text{ km}^2=\frac{\text{Number of people}}{23\text{ km}^2}*23\text{ km}^2


\text{60 people}*23=\text{Number of people}


1380\text{ people}=\text{Number of people}

Therefore, the population of the region would be 1380 people.
