Data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on type 2 diabetes indicate a prevalence difference of 0.097 comparing Americans older than 65 years versus those between the ages of 45 to 64. The correct interpretation of this measure is:

	A.	The risk of developing type 2 diabetes was 9.7 times greater in the older versus younger age group.
	B.	The prevalence of type 2 diabetes was 0.97 times greater in the older versus younger age group.
	C.	Americans 65 years of age or older had 9.7 fewer cases of type 2 diabetes per 100 than those who were 45-64 years of age.
	D.	Americans 65 years of age or older had 97 more cases of type 2 diabetes per 1000 than those who were 45-64 years of age.
