In​ 2015, there were approximately 3,741,000 births in a country. Find the birth rate in births per minute. Assuming a population of 388 ​million, what was the annual birth rate in units of births per 1000​ people?

In​ 2015, there were approximately 3,741,000 births in year 2015 (Not a leap year)
1 year 365days *24 hours *60 = 525600 minutes
n 525600 minutes ----3,741,000 births
1 minute 3,741,000/525600 =7.11 births
population of 388 ​million ------------3,741,000 births
for 1000 people how many?
1000*3741000/388,000,000.=9.641 biths /1000

2015, there were approximately 3,741,000 births in a country. Find the birth rate in births per minute.

That starts as 3741000 births per 1 year.
Use whatever you need from these:
1 year = 365.25 days
1 day =24 hours
1 hour = 60 minutes
