    The population around the tower is 111,862 people.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    In order to solve this problem we first need to calculate the area surrounded by the tower, since it's a circle we can apply the following formula:

    tower area = pi*r²

    tower area = pi * (4.9) ² = 75.4296 miles²

    For every mile² there are 1483 people, therefore:

    population = area*density

    population = 75.4296*1483 = 111,862

    The population around the tower is 111,862 people.
