169.284 people per square mile.

Work Step by Step

Subtract exponents when dividing powers with the same base. $\frac{7.33\times10^6}{4.33\times10^4}$ Simplify the exponent. $=\frac{733}{433}\times10^2$ Divide. Round to the nearest thousandth. $\approx 1.6928 \times 10^2$ $=169.284$ The population density of Honduras was about 169.284 people per square mile.
