Crude Birth Rate

Introduction to Crude Birth Rate (CBR) Calculator

The crude birth rate (CBR) is the number of live births within a population per 1000 people. It is calculated by multiplying the ratio of the number of births by the total population, and then multiplying by 1000 to get the rate per 1000 population. This rate is used to indicate the fertility level of a particular population.

Parameter usage:

• numberOfBirths= total number of live births within a population
• totalPopulation= total population of the region

Output:

• CBR= crude birth rate per 1000 population

Data validation

The total population should be greater than zero.

Summary

This calculator takes into account the number of live births and the total population of a region to determine the crude birth rate, which is a key indicator of the fertility level of the population.
