where does 5.3 number come from?
- yobbo 5y ago301 * 100000 / 5634634 = 5.34 ... 301 is count of cases in population. 5634634 is size of population. 100000 is his choice of scale.
- techsin101 5y agoFirst thanks, I was going in completely wrong direction and thinking it was way more complicated.. But why multiply by 100k? the formula basically looks like NumOfVaxedPplSickPer100k * 100k / TotalVaxedPopulation Is multiplying to 100k an arbitrary choice? If not then what does (NumOfVaxedPplSickPer100k * 100k) give you?
