Answer:

11.49 dogs/ square mile

Explanation:

Population density of any place is number of living being living in that area per unit area.

Population density = number of living being/ area of the place

given

number of dogs= 43,600,000

area = 3,794,083 square miles

population density of domesticated dogs = 43,600,000 /3,794,083

= 11.4915 dogs/ square mile

population density of domesticated dogs, rounded to the nearest 10th

is 11.49 dogs/ square mile.
