   H.	Deaths due to a specific cause (eg. cancer) in a given year / midyear population x 100,000
   I.	Deaths among a population during a calendar year /midyear population x 100,000
   J.	Number of deaths assigned to a cause / total number of cases occurring x 100

Answer 1

1) Crude mortality rate - I death among the population in a calender year/mid year population×100.000.

2) cause specific mortality rate- H = death due to specific cause in a particular population/mid year population ×100000

3) age specific mortality rate - F number of death in a that gae group /mid year population in that same age rage ×100000.

4) proportionate mortality rate -A propertion of death occuring due to a specific cause

5) case fatality rate-J number of death due to a certain cause / total number of cases occurring ×100.

6) infant mortality rate- G number of death of children with in one year of age / number of life birth ×1000.

7) neonatal mortality rate- E number of death less than 28 days old /number of life birts ×1000.
