Question

There are approximately 3.5 million deaths per year in a country express this quantity as deaths per minute

Answer 1

hmmm ok... 3.5 million.. or 3,500,000

now, keeping in mind that, there are 365 days in a year(exempting leap-year), and 24 hrs in a day, and 60 minutes in 1hr.


`\bf \cfrac{3500000~deaths}{\underline{year}}\cdot \cfrac{\underline{year}}{365~\underline{day}}\cdot \cfrac{\underline{day}}{24~\underline{hr}}\cdot \cfrac{\underline{hr}}{60~min}\implies \cfrac{3500000~deaths}{365\cdot 24\cdot 60~min} \\\\\\ \cfrac{3500000~deaths}{525600~min}\qquad \approx \qquad 6.6590563~(deaths)/(min)`
