Question

In 1998 there were 21,000 deaths in a mid-year population of 3,750,000. calculate crude mortality

Answer 1

crude mortality rate or crude death rate

CDR = total death/total population x 1000

deaths = 21,000
population =3,750,000

21000/3750000 x 1000

=5.6 
-------------------------------
CDR = 5.6

Answer 2

CDR = total death ÷ total population * 1000

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

☆ population =3,750,000

☆ deaths = 21,000
