Answer:

4,913 people more per sq mile.

Step-by-step explanation:

First step is to calculate the population density of both cities, then we'll be able to answer the question.

We're looking for a number of people per sq mile... so we'll divide the population by the area.

Honolulu: 348,000 people on 68.4 sq miles

DensityH = 348,000 / 68.4 =  5,088 persons/sq mile

Anchorage: 298,000 people on 1,706 sq miles

DensityA = 298,000 /1 ,706 = 175 persons/sq mile

Then we do the difference...  5,088 - 175 = 4,913 more people per sq mile.
