Suppose that in 2008, 945, 350 citizens died of a certain disease. assuming the population of the country is 332 million, what was the mortality rate in units of deaths per 100,000 people?

The mortality rate is 285 units of death per 100,000 people

Step-by-step explanation:

945,350 people died out of 332,000,000 people. So the percentage of people who died is:

% is the rate of mortality

Now, in terms of 100,000 people, we need to multiply this mortality rate (0.285%) with 100,000:

Hence, the mortality rate is 285 units of death per 100,000 people
