Answer:
The pedestrian fatality rate for California per 100,000 residents would be;
= (858/39,536,653) * 100,000
= 2.17 people per 100,000
In Arizona that figure is;
= (216/7,016,270) * 100,000
= 3.08 people per 100,000
<em>This shows that even though California has a higher number of pedestrian fatalities in absolute terms, when this figure is made relative to population, Arizona has more pedestrian fatalities. </em>
