In total, you'd only need four numbers:

  • The total number of school aged children
  • The number of school aged children who died due to violent crime
  • The total number of billionaires
  • The total number of billionaires who died due to violent crime

Rate could mean over time or percentage of. I think OP was thinking of time, in which case your wouldn't need the total number of schoolchildren. Just divide the population of billionaires by the number of schoolchildren that die by violent crime per year.
