I think there is a positive correlation between the number of people who own guns and the death rate by gun violence around the world. To test my hypothesis I found some statistics about the number of guns per 100 people and the number of gun related deaths per 100000 people for 8 different countries (and then I rounded off the numbers so that your data would not be so messy). Below you will find my data in a table.

Test my hypothesis using the 5 step hypothesis testing procedure ().
