    (6.434x10^-10

    Step-by-step explanation:

    During 36-Year period, 2768 people are killed, assuming that rate is constant, that implies that 76.9 ~ 77 people are killed every year and 0.211 people every day (roughly about 1 person every fifth day).

    population of The United States of America is 327,200,000 (as of 2020). the probability that any American will get hit by a lightning bolt tomorrow is 0.211/327,200,000 = 6.434x10^-10 which is equivalent to 6.434x10^-8% chances.
