First we decide whether 2015 has 365 days or 366 days in it.

A leap year ( multiple of 4) has 366 days in it, all other years have 365 days.

2015 is not a leap year so it has 365 days.

Now we are given that in 2015 the death toll was 30,200.

So we can say death toll in 365 days = 30,200

Now we have to find death toll per day

So we use unitary method here.

Death toll per day = Death toll in one year divided by number of days

Death toll per day = 30,200/ 365 = 82.7

Rounding off,

Death toll per day is 83 people approximately.
