Louisiana
Age group	Deaths	Population
0-15	30	165,000
16-70	215	300,000
71+	585	75,000

Florida
Age group	Deaths	Population
0-15	25	90,000

1. Calculate the overall crude mortality rates for LA and FL expressed as per 100,000 population.

2. Calculate the age-adjusted mortality rates using the combined population as the standard.

3. Explain what accounts for this difference in crude rates and adjusted rates between LA and FL.
