Answer: The Chicago's population density in 2010 was 11844.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of population = 2,695,694

Land area = 227.6 miĀ²

We need to find the Chicago's population density in 2010.

As we know the formula for population density which is given by


=\frac{\text{Number of population}}{\text{Land Area}}\\\\\\=(2695694)/(227.6)\\\\\\=11843.99\\\\\\\approx 11844

Hence, the Chicago's population density in 2010 was 11844.
