The answer is 6 per m2.

A population density is the number of animals per 1 m2.
So, this problem can be solved by using a proportion:
If 60 raccoons live in 10 m2, how many raccons will live in the 1 m2.
60 raccoons : 10 m2 = x raccoons : 1 m2
60 raccoons : 10 = x raccoons
x raccoons = 6 raccoons

Thus, the population density is 6 raccoons per m2.

Answer:

The correct answer is option A, 6\frac{Racoons}{m^2}\\

Explanation:

The Population density of any species in an ecosystem is equal to the number of that species living in one unit of area.  

Thus , population density can be represented as  

\frac{Total population }{Total area of habitat} \\

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -

= \frac{60}{10} \frac{Racoons}{m^2}\\= 6 \frac{Racoons}{m^2}\\
