Answer:

Hour: 9,000 people

Day: 216,000 people

Year: 78,840,000 people

Explanation:

In order to solve this, you need to identify how many minutes there are in an hour, a day, and a year:

Hour: 60 minutes

Day: 60 minutes × 24 hours = 1,440 minutes

Year: 60 minutes × 24 hours × 365 days = 525,600 minutes

Now, you need to multiply each of these numbers by 150 to find how many people are born every hour, day, and year:

Hour: 60 minutes × 150 people = 9,000 people

Day: 1,440 minutes × 150 people = 216,000 people

Year: 525,600 minutes × 150 people = 78,840,000 people

Explanation:

150 x 60 = 9,000 every hour

9000 x 24 = 216,000 every day

216000x 365 = 78,840,000 every year
