Let's assume the population of Chicago is x.
According to the given information, the population of New York City is 9.9 million more than the population of Chicago.
So, we can write the equation: 18.8 million = x + 9.9 million.
Now, let's solve for x.
x + 9.9 million = 18.8 million
x = 18.8 million - 9.9 million
x = 8.9 million.
Therefore, the approximate population of Chicago is 8.9 million.
