in 2008, 565650 Americans died of (all form of) cancer. Assuming a population of 305 millions, what was the mortality rate in units of deaths per 100000 people? Need in fraction format please.

Thanks!

It is a problem involving proportionality.

565650 people is how many thousands of people? And, since you say you want the answer "in fraction format", I presume that you know that a fraction involves division.
