Both total and average give the same result here.
Not if you're comparing states with different numbers of people.
They both give the same result in the sense that "give your money to the best charity" yields far higher aggregate utility than "have a kid".
(As your kid would be one in 7 billion, they're even quite close in how much charity beats reproducing by.)
