The correct response is:
**It can’t be determined without knowing the total population of each country.**
While the birth rates provide information about the number of live births relative to the population size, they do not give a complete picture without knowing the total population of each country. Niger could have a high birth rate, but if its total population is smaller than that of the United States, it would not have a larger overall population.
