Answer:

63 chickens per square mile

Explanation:

We are to calculate the average number of chickens per square mile.

Number of chickens = 40×5⁷

Number of square miles = 16×5⁵

The average number of chickens per square mile = 40 × 5⁷/16 × 5⁵

= 3125000/50000

= 62.5 chickens per square mile

Approximately to the nearest whole number is

= 63 chickens per square mile

Therefore,the average number of chickens per square mile is 63 chickens per square mile.
