Answer:

1380 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that population density is the number of people per unit of area.

[tex]\text{Population density}=\frac{\text{Number of people}}{\text{Area}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\text{60 people}}{\text{ km}^2}=\frac{\text{Number of people}}{23\text{ km}^2}[/tex]  

[tex]\frac{\text{60 people}}{\text{ km}^2}*23\text{ km}^2=\frac{\text{Number of people}}{23\text{ km}^2}*23\text{ km}^2[/tex]

[tex]\text{60 people}*23=\text{Number of people}[/tex]

[tex]1380\text{ people}=\text{Number of people}[/tex]

Therefore, the population of the region would be 1380 people.
