Question

City there are 244,000 48-year-olds. Based on the table below howmany are not expected to be alive in a year?

Answer 1

Case: Number of deaths

Method:

First, we add the total number of deaths

Next, we subtract from the total number of people alive

`\begin{gathered} 2000000-3491 \\ =1996509 \end{gathered}`

If there were 244,000 48-year olds,

The scale factor will be:

`\begin{gathered} =(244000)/(100000) \\ =2.44 \end{gathered}`

Hence the number of people expected NOT to be alive is:

`\begin{gathered} 3491*2.44 \\ =8518.04 \end{gathered}`

Final answer:

8519 people approximately
