* we leave the ASR in decimal form and do not multiply it by 100,000 for this method
^ the standard population is usually the standard population for the United States.
However, it can really be whatever population you want it to be.

Adjusted Mortality Rate = Expected Deaths / Standard Population x 100,000

Adjusted Mortality Rate 210.28

Your job is to use the Example 2 chart except for the standard population. Replace the standard population
data with data points from the American FactFinder. Then calculate the adjusted rate.
