The answer would be3.8356164375.This is because you have to divide 33,600 by 365 which gives you 92.0547945.The number 365 because of the amount days in a year.So that gave you the deaths per day.So then you divide it by 24.The number 24 because of 24 hours in a day.So, 92.0547945 by 24, this will give you the hourly rate of deaths.
