Explanation:

Step1: Compare population

Seoul's population is \(17,500,000\) and Mumbai's population is \(14,350,000\). Since \(14,350,000<17,500,000\), Mumbai has a smaller population.

Step2: Compare population density

Seoul's population density is \(16,700\) and Mumbai's population density is \(29,650\). Since \(29,650 > 16,700\), Mumbai has a higher population density.

Answer:

A. Mumbai has a smaller population but higher population density than Seoul.
