Answer:

198,400,000

Explanation:

Total Approximate Number of Residents in the United States = 320 million

38 per cent of the total number of residents live in the South

That means, as a percentage, 100%-38%=62% live in other areas of the Unjted States.


62 \% of 320 million =
(62)/(100)X320000000=198,400,000.

Therefore a total of about 198,400,000 live in other areas of the United States.
