A county is in the shape of a rectangle that is 40 miles by 30 miles and has a population of 50,000. What is the average number of people living on each square mile of the county? Round your answer to the nearest whole number. 42 357 31 56

The answer is 42

Step-by-step explanation:

I might be doing this wrong, but if we multiply 40 by 30 to find the total area of the country (1,200 square miles), we can divide the total population (50,000) by each answer choice to find which answer is correct; 50,000/42 is equal to 1,190, the closest product to 1,200. I claim to have possibly done this wrong, but 42 was the correct answer I received on the quiz -- hope I helped!
