The death rate in each age group is available in the table above. Please note that the death rate is reported per 100,000 in this table. Please be aware of this before calculating the expected death rates. After you multiply the number of people in your standard population by the death rate per 100,000, you will have to divide by 100,000 to get the expected deaths for each age category. d. Use the table above to calculate the Age adjusted rate of mortality from Diabetes for White males e.
