Crude rate = (Number of events × 1000) / Total population
Calculate crude birth rate for 500 births, 50,000 pop.
Calculate crude birth rate for 500 births, 50,000 pop.
CBR = (500 × 1000) / 50,000 = 10.0 per 1000
What does a crude death rate measure?

It measures deaths per thousand people in a population.
Calculate crude unemployment rate: 3000 unemployed, 80000 pop.
Calculate crude unemployment rate: 3000 unemployed, 80000 pop.
CUR = (3000 / 80000) × 100 = 3.75%
How to adjust crude rates for per hundred?
