Answer:

73.06 ha/hr

Explanation:

To calculates this, you will need to find out the number of hours in 2011.

There were 365 days in 2011.

Each day has 24 hours.

⇒ 365 ×24 = 8760 hours

To calculate the hectares per hour, we divide the total number of hectares by the total number of hours.

\frac{640000}{8760}  = 73.059

We rounded off this value to two decimal places:

73.06 hectares per hour of Amazon rainforest were cleared in 2011.
