Question 1163070: If the annual rate from smoking is 154 deaths per 100,000 persons and the annual death rate from firearms is 13.5 deaths per 100,000 persons, how many deaths from these causes would you expect in a community of 1 million people? Can you show me the equation please? Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 154/100,000=x/1,000,000
cross-multiply and 1,000,000*154=100,000x
=154*1,000,000/100,000=154*10=1540
